Banned for leaving spectator?

Was simply in a match (before the game even started) waiting for a 6th person to join on my team. However, it was taking an absurdly long time and out of nowhere the game boots me to the main menu, no loading screen, no message about why, just simply sends me back. I assumed maybe it did that cause it couldn't find a suitable player so I try to requeue but I am told that I am temporarily banned. I do have a small theory as to why it happened. As I was waiting for that game to like, load me in, I had decided to watch other matches. When it said my game was ready I had instinctively clicked "leave spectator" and it didn't load me into any game, just put me on the main menu. That's when I queued into the match that couldn't find a 6th person. I guess it punished me for leaving a match I was never in? I know the ban isn't that long but I am afraid that there is some sort of 3 strike you're out rule or increasingly long bans. I don't want to be punished for an oversight so I hope this can be resolved.20240903033312_1.jpg
 
Same issue here, I think the leave spectating button was in its place instead but did the same thing as leaving the match.1726838998078.png
