While I feel that this idea is hopefully an "unwritten but commonly known rule," one thought for a rule to prevent overly aggressive contact to a disabled team would be the following:

In the event that a robot becomes disabled by any means, said robot should no longer be aggressively contacted by any other robot. Aggressive contact shall be defined as any forceful, apparently intentional contact made when the disabled robot is not in a position to prevent an opponent from scoring. If the disabled robot is preventing the opponent from scoring, the opposing team may attempt to move the robot only as far as necessary and only in a manner deemed by the FIRST officials as non-threatening to the welfare of the disabled team.

Again, I hope that this rule is completely unnecessary and is commonly understood without being expressed in writing. The words may not be completely concise, but the intention is hopefully clear.
