In short, they cleared him of any wrongdoing, or of getting a performance boost:

Bearing this in mind, and CAS advice to the IOC to “distinguish between the two isomers of methamphetamine and to introduce a threshold as it has done in the case of other stimulants such as caffeine.” it really does seem a shame that they won’t overturn the removal of his medal. At least it clears his reputation though.
