It doesn't specifically say you can't touch the hoops, but if you damage them, it will be a penalty under the safety rules, and yes, the most is 84" on the scoring half.
Also, what would be good for scoring is to not be in the key unless you have an extremely reliable shooter. A bot with 6 or 8 wheel tank drive, or even 4 wheel drive will be hard to move from the side if it has a low center of gravity, and will not move and make it easy to score quick baskets close to the hoops.
