But how? It doesn't really say anything about what Microsoft did other than disable Xbox Live accounts. Why can't they just play offline? How did Microsoft stop that, did they even stop that?

I don't know how but they can and did from the Kotaku article.

"Yep, according to VMC, Microsoft has both permanently banned those leakers’ Xbox Live accounts and temporarily made their Xbox Ones totally unusable."
