The author's attorneys are preventing them from being specific enough to identify the people involved. Others in the industry, independent of each other, confirmed it was a bad idea, and the reactionary behavior of the speaker just further proved it.

In any case, even if the reason behind removing them from the conference was moot, do you think the behavior of the speaker was justified?

Probably controversial views on the internet, ie. nothing actually bad.

I'm going to make a wild guess that it was more than that, given that they were the type of person to harass the conference organizer after the fact.

To be fair, most of the harassment allegations were vague and not even alleged to be perpetrated by the woman who was disinvited (like “a famous hacker knows her, and my Signal started doing weird things”).
