The rule explicitly says that if the head ref shakes the truss, it won't count as scoring the truss points.

If a BALL becomes stuck on the TRUSS, the Head Referee will shake the TRUSS to free the BALL. In this situation, the ALLIANCE will not earn TRUSS points.
I don't recall seeing any questions about it on the Referee test, though…
