The important question is what is the ToS violation stated in the comment. Proton is on the right side, if the CERT actually provided evidence for the violation of ToS. Believing what the journalists said, one of the accounts that is still suspended was being used for disclosures.
All Proton had to say was “we have clear evidence from the complaint that there is violation of ToS”.
On the other hand if they acted solely on the words of a CERT, because it is under a Goverment, we have a very different issue at hand.
Their actions seem pretty reasonable given the context, then.
