In particular, the Zauderer test allows the state to compel commercial speech if doing so is "reasonably related to the State's interest in preventing deception of customers[1]." It's obviously up for debate, but I think one could make a strong argument that Twitter's content policies pass this test.
(More generally, however: there's lots of compelled commercial speech that doesn't fit into this flowchart. Taxes, commercial permits, leases, etc. I think one could make a strong argument that this law is strictly logistical in nature and represents no more of a 1A risk than Twitter's commercial leases do.)
