It's important to recognize that there are TWO TIGRAN PETROSIANS.
Both are GM's
One is former world Champion, generally recognized as the greatest Defensive player of all time:
Tigran V Petrosian
One is a cheater who was banned by FIDE.
Tigran L Petrosian

The latter was named after the former.
I'm all about Specificity and clarification.

Hello,

I can only find evidence that T.L. Petrosian was banned by Chess.com rather than FIDE. He's still active in Fide events according to their website.
