What do you mean?
The two times I can remember when they returned previously evicted HMs are Jon (bb4) and Nikki (bb8). I don't think they found anything to their detriment about Jon's return, except that it was a damp squib.
What happened with Nikki's is that the regulator accepted that BB could change the rules, but hadn't made the rule change sufficiently clear to viewers (specifically by not changing the copy of the rules on the show's website). So BB can change the rules but has to tell people that they're changed before the vote begins, so that viewers aren't misled.

I probably did at the time, but I don't still remember which scandal it was.
