That was 12 weeks ago though so surely someone from TCR would have spotted it and dealt with it by now if it was the case.
They will be going through everyone's routes now to check for infringements. Only when they have done that do the official results come out.
As you say, nothing wrong with riding on N roads but, if you see the blue 'cars only' sign, you have to get off the road. I saw two that I wasn't expecting in Serbia and re-routed, but I also saw another rider bowl through one of them.

The bit in Southern Serbia was a mess

I grassed on people riding a banned road in Serbia while I was pushing my bike through a gravel quagmire. Fuck 'em. Rules is rules. I also dobbed myself in last year when I blasted a tunnel having forgot all about it being banned. To be fair the roads were empty and the detour was actually less safe but rules is rules. Fuck me. Hmm.

Overall they're saying she went on a road where bikes are prohibited. That was 12 weeks ago though so surely someone from TCR would have spotted it and dealt with it by now if it was the case.
That said, you ARE allowed to cycle on N roads but not necessarily all of one. I rode one last year in France where for a bridge over a river you rode on the footpath then back onto the road a couple of km later. They say that there were some roadworks so perhaps cycling on the road near Saumur was allowed normally but not in the limited space etc. It's all supposition though.
