I don't know the rule, but if there is a rule that would call back a touchdown because of an instinctive human response, then it's a very bad rule.

I can see rules against blatant taunting and such, but this is a perfect example of where we are as a society and this is it -->

We are no longer willing to trust people in authority, whether they be teachers, referees, etc. to make reasonable judgments; therefore, we over-react and take these zero tolerance approaches so that no one is ever second guessed.

	Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
