If the review is banned, it seems that the review in question was the reason for ban/lock.
I wouldn't read into "please make sure you are not spamming or advertising". They could write "please make sure you are not harming anyone" and it would not suggest that the user attempted to do so. It's just a trashy, corporate replacement for "we fucked up and we're sorry".

Having said that, (that is what I said), the message was convincingly human for a support agent response. They didn't need to use so many words. [+also]

It would though, that's why they write things like that. The point is to reinforce that the recipient is/was at fault. They don't talk about specifics. It "makes it sound like it wasn't just the review they had a problem with".
[+also] it didn't say "After careful consideration we've decided to uphold the original decision. We recognise that this may be distressing to you. xoxox YoursTubey"
