You can either try and defend Johnson (as you have done above above) or you can say wait until the Sue Gray report. You can't do both.

One can defend a person who has not been found guilty by saying wait for the outcome of an investigation. That would not be trying to be on both sides of a barrier.
You can also state information in support of the defendant where the outcome is still unknown/unpublished.
There are far bigger things to sort out at the moment and for our government and parliament to focus on than some infringement of a rule about parties. If found to have broken the rules then they get fined like anyone else, if the country thinks something further is required it will say so in the next ballot.
