Bans in the past have had nothing to do with if it was from the disc or not. CFW users playing bought games have been banned.
That being said I think if you do not play online with your CFW PS3 that is no different from being banned. Also if you have n OFW PS3 use your paid for games on that and just pirate them for your CFW, keep the accounts separate. Having a banned CFW box is no big deal but an OFW one is a different story.
