Nah, this is some horseshit. Those shoes do not clearly violate any rules, and also why the fuck do they have a rule against "sports shoes" but allow "sneakers," and how the hell are those not sneakers?

The game has extremely strict rules, that's no reason to think the organization running it is more anal than Niemann's beads

That's what happens when you allow bureaucrats to rule. It happens in every field, in every industry. It sucks how quickly the rules become seriously caricature-like and out of touch. Cf. Kafka's The Trial.
