Winnings were maintained only if it was clear that they derived from real money stakes.
As per previous comment, this could not happen as as soon as one bonus payment had been made, all future play could be theoretically linked back to that. So no winnings were maintained and IW had to make no payouts for the day in question.

As far as I am aware, those who had winnings SOLELY from real money - i.e. they never dipped below the total of the real amount deposited and that which was won through gameplay (so NOT playing with bonus money) DID receive their winnings, less the bonus amount that was credited. I think going down the "they stole EVERYBODY's money" is the wrong way to argue this point as they will simply state that some accounts did receive winnings.
The remainder of your points however are spot on.
