If you read the article, the rules were only that both parties have to agree on a test and if someone passed the test they won the prize. There wasn't a "gotcha" clause like "Oh since you did it it's clearly allowed by physics and we don't have to pay up!" So like if someone showed they had psychic powers sufficient to pass an agreed upon test it doesn't matter if there's a natural explanation for it, they would have still won the prize.
