There are lots of files from your "source code" that has dates from before the Jam. Like lots of Unity metas, images and some code (although in Compo you can reuse code).
It doesn't look like things where all made in 48 hours...

You should switch from Compo to Jam or Extra. Accept your responsibility. You simply did not follow the rules. But what pisses people off the most is your ‘winner’ and ‘competitor’ attitude.
This is Ludum Dare. It's a Game Jam. The spirit of these events is the opposite of WINNING and COMPETITION. It's about SHARING and LEARNING.
It's great that you made a good game. Congratulations. Hopefully you can finish it and publish it and make a living from making games.
But this is not about ‘getting competitors out of the way’. It's about being fair and following the rules you agreed to when you participated. If you don't change your category yourself, I hope there is some kind of moderation that will do it. Be careful, because it could be worse to get disqualified than to change your entry in time.
