Ok, how many people play CoD? I think a lot.
Do you realize how long it will take to find all those accounts that did the trick? When everyone did the black ops 15th prestige hack, it was really, really easy to find the people who did it since they could simply find who messed with the game externally. In this case, no one messed with the game using external resources.
As a result, Infinity Ward would have to go through each and every account that plays CoD to ban everyone who did it.
And, I doubt they'll do that since it will take a shit load of time. They should be more worried about the shitload of stuff they need to fix in the game. Again, they'll only get the people who have been reported.
