I feel this is extrajudicial punishment. Whether james charles is guilty or not, youtube should not have the power to be both judge and jury and executioner.

Huh, what a weird view. It's a business agreement and one side (YouTube) has deemed the other to have broken the agreement because their "Creator Responsibility Policy" is part of it. And seemingly he's admitted that he did do that.

If he disagreed, he can take YouTube to court.

Not really - you can still make plenty of money by making sponsored videos with your own ads baked in.

This surely has to be somewhere there on the top lists of most people's bozo bits set to 1 per character in comment.

Does that mean youtube no longer inserts ads into those videos?

No, that means that now they have a reason to take all of his money. Just pure greed.
