I'm assuming it's related to the MSU study and the VP of research at the university who was quoted in a WSJ article and subsequently fired due to his role talking about it to the media.
A rough outline by the authors is here, you can search scihub for the actual paper.

As for the Professor Hsu controversy, here's some additional data:
> the main thrust to oust Hsu came because the professor touted Michigan State research that found police are not more likely to shoot African-Americans
> The graduate union told The Fix that administrators should not share research that runs counter to public statements by the university.
> “It is the union’s position that an administrator sharing such views is in opposition to MSU’s statements released supporting the protests and their root cause and aim,” Ackles wrote in an e-mail to The College Fix.
