Question:

Can a Referee downgrade an expulsion to an ejection? Is there anytime/reason other than fouling out that a Referee may eject a player?

Answer:

No, Referees cannot downgrade an expulsion to an ejection. Ejection is a consequence specifically of the accumulation of minors and/or majors totaling five turns in the penalty box. Any behavior not warranting expulsion shall be penalized according to guidelines set forth in section 6: Penalties.
