Perez did iterraly NOTHING againts any rule, he didnt change line twice, didnt change line under braking, and wasnt obliged to leave space whatsoever. End of.
If Ocon was a full car behind as you suggest then Perez would have been able to come across in front of Ocon.

The fact that Ocon's front wing was hit by Perez's rear tyre tells you that Perez was not a full car in front.
