Why were the coaches not ejected?

Leaving the bench and not participating is not an ejection for the HC. It's one indirect no matter how many players left the bench.

The HC gets an indirect for each bench player who particiapates in a fight.

That might be your state association ruling, but it is NOT the NFHS rule. See 10-4-5. The HC is only allowed to enter the court if beckoned by an official.
