Hypothetical defensive situation

Robot A is a offensive high goal shooting robot. Robot B is a defensive robot. Robot A uses a system similar to 118's robot's shooting mechanism from 2013 where robot 'A' lifts it's front half to change it's shooting angle

During a match robot A shoots for high goals just out side their key with a very steep angle of attack when suddenly robot B rams/pushes them causing robot A to shoot out of the field and/or tip over.

Would robot B's action be fair play since it was defensive play outside the loading zone and since robot A set it's self up in a unstable way or would this break rule's related to intentionally causing your opponent to flip/make a foul?
