The modifications were held to be an intentional violation of the AC45 one-design rules, and as the ACWS was deemed to be a part of the America's Cup event, a penalty was assessed against Oracle Team USA in the America's Cup Match.<ref>{{citation |title=America's Cup champion Oracle docked 2 points |url=https://sports.yahoo.com/news/americas-cup-champion-oracle-docked-202817680--spt.html |publisher=Yahoo Sports |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130906052940/http://sports.yahoo.com/news/americas-cup-champion-oracle-docked-202817680--spt.html |archive-date=6 September 2013}}</ref><ref>{{citation |title=Team Oracle USA penalized as cheating scandal rocks Americas cup |url=http://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/team-oracle-usa-penalised-as-cheating-scandal-rocks-americas-cup/story-e6frg7mf-1226710413757 |work=The Australian |access-date=27 September 2013 |archive-date=5 September 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130905224711/http://www.theaustralian.com.au/sport/team-oracle-usa-penalised-as-cheating-scandal-rocks-americas-cup/story-e6frg7mf-1226710413757 |url-status=live }}</ref>}}
