Real simple; the off-script thing has everything to do with future options.

It's bad PR. It's bad PR cuz this guy went off script. They can't trust he won't do it again.
Easy peasy, you don't have him on your shows again cuz really, you ain't missing anything. He's not Britney or Madonna; ya know, someone that sells merchandise and ratings.
And yes, ABC asks the Oscars to not invite Adrien Brody the next year, the Oscars more than likely tell them to go piss up a rope. And ya know what ABC does....they air it, they zoom in tight on Brody's face as he gives the Best Actress award away. Why? Cuz 40mil people watch the Oscars every year and ABC knows that pays the bills.
it's the same reason CBS will outright fire anyone at the Masters telecast who even remotely impugnes the Masters. Cuz they know the Masters pays for itself and doesn't answer to CBS in the least.
