Even putting aside the issues of power, I can't imagine them pardoning Madara like they did Sasuke. Sasuke was a criminal for what? A year? Madara was the real cause of decades of problems, both directly and indirectly. I don't think anyone would have healed him, meaning he'd be weak enough for them to execute him.
