The other heroes actually know he didn't really rape, or attempt to rape, anyone; they aren't stupid. So, they are just maintaining the setting they committed to. Other than that, he's still one of the heroes, no matter if the Shield Hero is shunned by the nation, so they can't actually get rid of him totally.
