It really depends on the nature of the offense. If you end up either invading or being invaded by someone using the infinite health hacks, chances are they won't be banned anymore. It's not as serious, especially since history has proven that a lot of those hackers aren't that skilled (thus having to rely on the hacks), and can actually be killed pretty regularly regardless.

Now, if it were something very serious, like a hacker somehow deleting your character or removing your entire inventory, then you might get results.

And of course, there's the auto bans that occur if you happen to have certain items that trips over certain anti-hack flags left in the game. That's why you shouldn't pick up any item left behind by an obvious hacker.
