Sooo...when was the last time foreign diplomats went to Russia in order to organize rallies during a major russian election?

USA ambassador in 2011. Between parlament and president election. 

While you may argue that the US embassy is offering aid in one form or another to russian protesters (which I'm pretty certain is absolutely true) it is not really comparable to what has happened in Netherlands. A similar situation would be to have Hillary Clinton (acting as secretary of State) to come and make a public speech. I'm using Clinton as example since you brought up 2011. But any Secretary of State would work.
