Disney bans based on how serious the reason for banning is. However, they don't ban single pirates, they always do accounts or higher.

I'm not sure about IP bans though. I've seen people get banned for various reasons (more than likely on a basic account), only to log on to another account. They should always ban the players IP.. if something like that would of happened, linked accounts could have stayed.

What would have been simpler for Disney to do regarding people using linked accounts to bypass their suspensions would have been to disable the characters on the affected account. Disney's idea of banning an account is to deny them logon access. The linked accounts let them bypass the logon of the account and tab over. If they'd had just denied them the ability to actually choose those characters, it would have been a lot easier to control.

Sure that doesn't help situations where people just create a new account and grief people with low level characters, but that can't be avoided when you have a free level of access to the game.
