Just to ensure that no one misunderstands: A just-"scored" run can be removed even in a non-force play situation. In fact, this seems usually to be the case in malicious contact at home plate.

You're talking OBR only right? In FED if he scores and then makes malicious contact we count the run.
Rule 3-1 (penalty)

Sorry about that, I wanted to reduce confusion and I just made it worse! Yes, by 3-1-1n PEN, if such a runner already scored in FED, he is ejected for his malicious contact but not out. If a runner begins malicious contact before scoring, then he will be out. I was thinking that when a runner touches the plate DURING his malicious contact, then he is out and his run does not count. I will delete my earlier post to avoid any further confusion.
