I'm not sure, but code of conduct was breached, so could be the usual whenever code of conduct is brought up.

The code of conduct consists of individual provisions, articles, and paragraphs. It should be easy (in fact, it should be a prerequisite for such actions being taken) to cite the specific provisions of the CoC that were supposedly violated, and to enter that information into the record. That this didn't happen speaks volumes.
How do you know "code of conduct was breached"? We only know that there was a complaint, that it was breached.
AFAIK, the word "breached" can also be interpreted as "brought up in discussion". So maybe that was what the GP meant.
Or, come to think of it, is the phrase "the subject was broached in the discussion" what I was thinking of? Note the 'o', not 'e'.

Sorry, now I'm thinking I was wrong above.
