It might take a few days before it gets suspended. A side project account of mine was suspended and it took me 9 months to get it back.

Certainly possible (I'll report back if that's the case).

I think the argument by @ddtaylor is more probable (that Twitter is using a "trust score" type metric to determine account suspensions).
