I always found this practice to be odd. Diplomats' whole existence is to do diplomacy. But the first thing they do after an incident that would require diplomacy is expelling the diplomats?

It's not their first course of action. Russia were given 14 days to explain how a Russian military grade nerve agent ended up poisoning a former Russian spy in the UK. No explanation was given. (Although Russia asked if they could analyze the nerve agent, iirc)

Obviously you can't explain what you know nothing about. They're made guilty either way
