Has this ever been enforced against giveaway contests?

Yes.

Personal experience. The company I work for puts together online sweeps/contests including Facebook ones, and we've had a couple clients come to us after getting their promotions shut down for violating guidelines.

Enforcement seems to be random to the point where I'm pretty sure it only happens if someone reports a page or someone from Facebook stumbles upon it, but it can happen.
