Sure, bureaucrats can demote admins and admins can demote mods. However, that is based on local or even personal ideas about what is fair and what is not. There is no global policy saying that mods can't block users indefinitely nor is there a limitation built into MediaWiki. Look, bottom line is you're at fault. It isn't the end of the world, just move on and wait until your block expires. Complaining isn't going to get you anywhere.
