Look at the exceptions/notes to Rule 14 again:

“(Ball purposely deflected or stopped by player, partner or caddie - see Rule 1-2)”

http://www.usga.org/rules/rules-and-decisions.html#!rule-14

Similar exception for Rule 19-2. This is clearly a rule 1-2 situation.

(Ball purposely deflected or stopped by player, partner or caddie - see Rule 1-2)

As I noted above, disqualification is an available remedy.
