Somebody might have been cheating on Linux, got caught and then has their data (loaded modules) used as a specimen for a positive result, thereby flagging all Linux players as cheaters. That, or EA has a whitelist of loaded modules.

That would excuse incorrectly banning players. It does not excuse upholding the ban:

I guess I'm reinstating my EA boycott, after all the progress and good will that they earned.
