True.

If you violate the ToS, you are cheating.
Not necessarily true.

Violating the ToS is breaking the rules, but not all rulebreaking is cheating.
For example, insulting other players in the game also violates the ToS, but I don't see how it could be considered cheating.
"Cheating" implies that you are breaking the rules in a way that give you some advantage, but there are plenty of prohibited actions that do not give you any advantage.
