For those asking for a summary, the best I could find that summarizes the issue is a Kotaku article, which is less than ideal, but it should give folks a sense of the internal arguments while presenting agdq staff in the most charitable light for fairness:

The tldr is that the rules are sufficiently vague that who does and doesn't get banned is wildly inconsistent and seems to be driven more by the personalities of the people running the show then by any sort of actual enforcement of rules.

That, and it's questionable how much of the donations actually make it to the charity:
