You're jumping the gun. A pitch to the NEXT batter- the one that follows the improper batter B3 to the plate- makes all play stand. On this play, our improper batter is still open to appeal.

Add FED softball (and baseball, since you mentioned OBR) to the rule sets that let allow runner advances to stand (as long as they aren't a result of the batter's actions) even if the improper batter is appealed.

ASA, as far as I can tell, is the "odd man out" when it comes to negating all advances during the improper batter's at-bat.
