Who/what is "
Correnti"?
Just check my previous post, there's a hyperlink too.
GIUOCO DEL CALCIO (edizione 1996)
"""
REGOLA 12 - FALLI E SCORRETTEZZE
Un calciatore sarà
espulso dal terreno di gioco, mostrandogli il cartellino rosso, se a giudizio dell'arbitro:
o) si rende colpevole di condotta violenta;
p) si rende colpevole di condotta gravemente sleale;
q) tiene un atteggiamento ingiurioso o gravemente offensivo;
r) si rende colpevole di condotta scorretta dopo essere stato ammonito.
Se il giuoco è stato interrotto a causa della espulsione di un calciatore per una di queste
due ultime infrazioni, senza che siano state trasgredite altre norme della presente regola, dovrà essere ripreso con
un calcio di punizione indiretto, concesso a favore della avversaria dal punto in cui è stata commessa l'infrazione, con riserva delle condizioni di deroga imposte dalla regola 13.

Page 135.
Note: Regola 13 (Rule 13) is about CALCI DI PUNIZIONE (Free Kicks), so the last sentence just means that if such spot is within the goal box, the nearest point on the line of such goal box will be used instead.
Finally, this is not a FIGC decision, nor a Serie A exception or specific rule, this is within the
17 Fooball rules of the game adopted and
imposed by IFAB, FIFA, UEFA, and so on.
So, technically speaking, definitely
not a referee mistake.
And, it is not even a case in which you can say: he was in pain, he was frustrated from bad luck: he was cursing to cheer his team mates, that's deliberate, or anyhow injurious! Definitely
a foul to be sanctioned with an indirect free kick plus a red card, by these rules.
The fact that you like it or not, is irrelevant. The referee in this specific case did what he was supposed to do, by the rules. Several football rules might sound unexpected or weird* - I could open a thread about some day - but a referee, even if some rules sound weird to him, has to apply them when is judging the events on the pitch, he/she cannot make his/her own version of the rules.
*Example: indirect free kick inside your own box, you kick directly into your own goal, it is goal for the opponent team or not?

I'm very much surprised too. I'd really like to know which article of the penal code states that blasphemy itself (i.e. not swearwords specifically destined to offend someone, or bothering noises by screaming them loud at night) to be a crime or to be illegal: if applied the whole city of Livorno would be in jail (their dialect sentences uses more blasphemies than commas).
Also, I don't think that the viewers were the issue, maybe the disciplinary board just wanted to look zealous for once.
Gone.
