I checked the rules and you are correct. Short sleeves are OK below M/S-M/SA. The driver in question (I/SA) should have been stopped in staging and required to jacket up. It was way up in the 90s on the track the day in question.
Point is, a racer lost to a guy he thinks should have been DQ'd on a technicality. Just let it go. Short sleeves didn't win the race.
EDIT: From the Stock section. My emphasis.
