The US BG Tournament Rules and Procedures does provide specific guidance on the role of spectators:
"1.7 SPECTATORS. Spectators shall remain silent while observing a match. Spectators have no right to draw attention to any misplays or comment on plays. Spectators who observe improprieties or irregularities during a match should discuss them in private with the Director. A player may request the Director to bar one or more spectators from viewing his match."
The rules adopted in Europe and Japan are very similar in this specific regard.
The way the "kibitzer" acted appears to be wholly consistent with the rules, which sensibly promote discrete responsible behaviour from spectators.
