The FTC release has a one-sentence paragraph which says that the spam violated the act, the bulk of the release addresses "deceptive claims". It's unlikely they would have taken any action against TrustSoft for spamming only, considering how little spam actually is compliant, and how little the FTC has enforced You-Can-Spam in spite of that.
