First thing I was taught as a lifeguard is always preserve your safety first, even if it means pulling away from the drowning victim. Yes, it was selfless of him to give the lady his mask, but if the fire had flared up, and he had been overcome, she would not have been in a position to take over and get them both out, resulting in loss of both. With his mask on, he would have reduced the chances of not being able to get himself and his victim out. She might have suffered more smoke inhalation, but thats what the paramedics are for.
It’s not all that honorable, but the investigation is still warranted because he violated a critical procedure.
You have obviously not been in this situation,

He made a spot decision that saved her life.
He was trained and knew what he was doing.
“It’s not all that honorable, but the investigation is still warranted because he violated a critical procedure.”
Balderdash!
