The only thing we can do is consider this an invalid signal and penalize the action.

The NCAA rule on invalid fair catch signals is pretty clear that "any waving signal" by a Team B player on a kick is an invalid signal and thus means the play is shut down after Team B possession. I wouldn't call this simply an interpretation, though I may be reading too much into what you said.
