As the rules stand right now (after update 2) it is legal. The only rule regarding the HUMAN PLAYER and BOULDER interaction is G33, and there are no restrictions on where the BOULDER has to end up, just how it has to enter the FIELD. There have been claims that some HUMAN PLAYERS have been able to kick the BOULDERS over the DEFENSES into the COURTYARD, which also is currently legal. I suspect this will prove to be difficult and very inconsistent.
However, there is no guarantee that the RAMPARTS are going to end up next to the LOW BAR, and realistically if any team thinks anyone can bowl through there they are going to select a different DEFENSE that is harder to bowl over. Remember, per section 5.5.10, the opposing ALLIANCE chooses the DEFENSES in slots 2,4,and 5 and they have control which choice goes where.
