This clarification is from the minutes of the TG meeting at Winter Range 2017:

When is the penalty earned in the situation where a cocked revolver is holstered?

"When hand is off the gun.  (Answer was researched in current ROC clarifications and discussions).  When a cocked revolver is holstered, and the shooter removes their hand from the grip, the appropriate penalty will apply (can’t be rectified).  Whether there is a live round, empty casing or empty chamber is below the cocked hammer is irrelevant – it is the cocked revolver which earns the penalty – SDQ."

And this is when it can become a MDQ.

PaleWolf if shooter holsters cocked pistol and lets go of it (SDQ) then grabs it again and decocks it in the holster or pulls the trigger to drop the hammer with it still in the holster (2nd SDQ) has he now earned a MDQ?

YES...two separate actions, each of which is a SDQ violation = MDQ.
