I haven't gotten banned. The key is to bot smart. Don't leave your bot on for 20 hours straight and don't just leave it unattended. I'm usually around, watching TV, playing Xbox or spending time with my family. If someone white knights against me I turn the bot off and ask them why they are bothering me. Sometimes depending on my mood I report them for harassment with some success. GMs are not usually just trolling around looking for stuff. So if one decides to ban you it's usually because a player reported you, they logged on and monitored you long enough to validate the claim and then issued punishment.
If they think you're doing something against ToS they usually don't talk to you unless it is a conduct issue and even then you'll probably get hit without notice and an e-mail explaining why and the length of punishment. If they talked to you then you'd have a chance to rationalize what you were doing and then could argue your way out of it with CS.
