Or was he simply pardoned for his crimes during his alliance with Orochimaru and Tobi? If it's the latter, then I could see how the clemency granted by Kakashi could be overruled if somehow the world found out he tried to take it over by force. I doubt it. But only four people know of this, and they're all team 7. Everything that happened regarding Kaguya is only known by team 7, and even then half the stuff Madara pulled wasn't observed by the Alliance (IE when he is Rinne Tensei'd and starts throwing Chibaku Tensei like crazy).

Even so, the world owes Sasuke it's continued existence. No matter how rotten or evil you are, it's a debt that cannot be repayed. So it seems that the Ninja World simply wiped their slates clean, but only up to the end of the war. So any new crime is simply a crime. This condition also seems to apply to Orochimaru (hence continued surveillance by Yamato), Kabuto (kept in the village, presumably under supervision).
