Reversal notification from Upwork on hourly contract

[#1]

I got this email from Upwork stating that I did not meet the criteria for Upwork’s Hourly Protection policy due to high hourly rate. I think It's not my fault as long as the client accepted my proposal and make an offer.   Anyone here got the same issue? They reversed almost all the money that should be available to withdraw today.
