You've asked us "What is the ruling?"
I think that's clear - the ruling was - illegal conference.
But absent a better explanation, I don't think any of us can tell you what the illegal conference was ruled for. You don't even list the ruleset you're using, so I'm a bit at a loss to try to help you. Umpire said, "You can't do that". Define "that" for us.
