................ However, at the half inning he came out to argue further, talking to both the 1B and 3B umpires. The 1B umpire eventually gave him the big heave-ho, but then the 3B umpire told the other umpire to calm down and apparently unejected the coach, who was instead told to remain in the dugout the rest of the game. Is there any rule that permits this kind of action by another umpire?

The only way I can see this happening is if the 3rd base umire talked to the 1st base umpire and, convincing him/her that maybe there was an overreaction on the incident, the 1st base umpire just simply modified (toned down) his ejection to a restriction.
The rule stated above 10.6.b specifically prohibits another umpire from reversing a decision of a fellow umire.
