Well, it's actually even more general than that. Any site, listed or not, is open to review by any editor at any time. Many sites get multiple reviews without ever being listed. And many more sites get accidentally listed, then correctly deleted. (This is a much bigger problem than sites getting inappropriately rejected!)

There are internal forums where questionable listings are discussed. Usually, though, if you're familiar with the editing guidelines, the basis for the decision is easy enough to see. There aren't that many borderline sites, and when it comes down to it, everyone can do without them anyway.

Since false positives are so much bigger a problem than false negatives, it's fortunate that ANYONE--not just editors!--can check categories for inappropriate listings. Those can be reported at the Forum Which Must Not Be Named. Often an editor re-check will happen within hours, and everyone can obviously see the resolution.
