Or should I just leave with my virtual head held high?

I have no idea what rule I could have broken. I'm more of a reader and liker of posts. But I did reply to a post with a negative review about a company someone wanted opinions on.

It was a nice group. I'm actually sad. It's still there but its not letting me request to join.

Grin when I saw the title I just knew this would be full of fish puns, and I was not disappointed!

Yes, and when you ask them for an explanation, they always clam up.

Yeah I feel like people are now just trawling for puns.
OP! Don't worry chum. Some people just shark FB groups as admins. By complaining you might be giving them something to get their teeth into. I'd avoid diving too deep into the comments or the reasoning.

some groups are managed by people who have fixed and intolerant views.

In some cases you may approve. For example I am in a group that (not always very quickly) bans members who repeatedly post racist and antisemitic content.

In other cases you may disapprove. Maybe in your case the founder is a devoted supporter of the company you criticised.

If you think the group founder is an arse, you're better off out of it.

Some of the groups I'm in don't allow negative reviews of local business.

If the issue is still Ongoing and they're trying to resolve it, then they may have felt a negative review was unfair.

Perhaps it's an old buoy's network, many fb groups tend to work like that.

Send a letter of complaint. Don’t put a stamp on it, just mark it C.O.D.
