No Rondo award has ever been rescinded. One award was given back when an individual gamed the vote to win a Rondo for Writer of the Year, which he clearly did not deserve. In fact he had not written anything during the year the award represented. The resulting conflagration created a whirlwind of internet activity looking into every crevasse of the winner's claimed past accomplishments. As additional discrepancies were uncovered (most were exaggerations) the proverbial hotseat grew unbearable and the winner withdrew his claim to the award.

Geez. Either that was before my time here, or I was even more oblivious than usual during all this. Must go do some research ...
