There's a system in place where the critics go on the nights they are invited, and receive complimentary tickets in return. In the past, critics have gone around this system by buying their own tickets, but that's usually reserved for extraordinary circumstances (like the 182 previews for Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark).

As for the word "rule," I'll go with what Merriam-Webster says, rather than what the word implies to me. Their first definition is "a prescribed guide for conduct or action," which would seem to apply.

guess it depends on what dictionary you use. the first one in mine is

>> a principle or regulation governing conduct, action, procedure, arrangement, etc.: the rules of chess.

That would also seem to apply.
