Were you an old.reddit user? The mods generally don’t care to update the stylesheets and information for that side of things - the two aren’t linked, because of course they aren’t - so the rule 8 you read might not be the rule 8 they were referring to.

They do provide a link to that rule when they give a warning or ban.
Rule 8 basically says that you are not supposed to hinder the function of Reddit or it’s staff.
Just that a mod in some subreddit is not Reddit staff and even if they were they should not be above any rules themselves.
Besides that, if you ban people for using your report functions, they will stop using them which defeats the purpose.
