I am not familiar with this area but based on the glossary here https://www.nasdaqtrader.com/Trader.aspx?id=tradehaltcodes , it seems if the halt was done by the exchange it would have a T12 halt code. SteveGregory's comment cites Tesla trading was halted using a T1 halt code (defined as "Trading is halted pending the release of material news"), which I assume would be initiated by Tesla.

To further muddy the waters, Fox News business on the latest updates casually mentions that the regulators have halted it, not sure if it's true.

"the regulators halted trading after a request by Tesla" could be true and not mean what you seem to think their statement means.
