I don't see why they would question the play. It's BI. Article 4 is exactly what occurred. "Pulls down a movable ring so that it contacts the ball before the ring returns to its original position." Article 4 doesn't say that the ball has to be touched or on the rim, only that the rim touches the ball before returning to it's proper position. This was a rule change from 2 years ago.
