There is no provision in the rules suggesting a player can, or should be, disqualified for returning to play after being told to correct or remove illegal or defective equipment or to add required equipment.
The simple solution is found in NF: 1.6.5, "when any required player equipment is missing, or when illegal equipment is found, correction shall be made before participation.
The player always gets to choose, either he can continue to wear the illegal equipment or he can play. He can't do both. The reason there is emphasis to detect such equipment problems BEFORE the ball is snapped is to avoid anyone from playing with illegal equipment.
