From a consistency stand point, the admin should be blocked. Another user was blocked for a month for using a vulgar word beginning with 'C' (even though they were just quoting).

As it is an unusual scenario being an admin that broke the rules, you could just temporarily remove their administrative rights for two weeks? Or one week block followed by no admin powers for the next.

I'm sure they've realised their mistake and take what ever punishment they receive with dignity.
