How can a person be traitorous and not be committing treason?
Section. 3.
Treason against the United States, shall consist only in levying War against them, or in adhering to their Enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. No Person shall be convicted of Treason unless on the Testimony of two Witnesses to the same overt Act, or on Confession in open Court.
Adhering to their enemies, giving them Aid and Comfort. Seems to cover it pretty well.
