Holloway did not travel with the Waratahs squad that headed to South Africa on Sunday.
Waratahs coach Daryl Gibson said after the match that the card was a straightforward decision.
"A red card. It's very clear in the law - a strike to the head with a forearm or elbow," he said.
"The sanction's a red card or a yellow, so no grumbling about that.
