Well, abusing the vote kick is punishable according to the support stuff in-game... So if people did do that, they might start throwing around temporary bans.
That would only work if the players abusing the feature first told the player they're going to kick that they're kicking them to get a friend in. If it's just a kick without explanation, the only player who would report it has nothing useful to report. Just saying "I got kicked and don't know why" won't get any action from the GMs. (Which is why it already gets abused so much. There's really no enforcement of the supposed "reasons" for kicking.)
I like Cinno's idea, though. Excluding this invite option after a kick but allowing it after someone leaves or disconnects would be useful at least a lot of times (if not always) and wouldn't be nearly as exploitable.
I'm pretty sure getting kicked without anyone saying anything is a valid thing to report... Specially if nothing happened to justify a kick in the first place.That would only work if the players abusing the feature first told the player they're going to kick that they're kicking them to get a friend in.

The biggest problem with the reports really is in my opinion that you don't know what server the other people are from and I don't know if GMs can access logs regarding it all to find that out.
Also, removing the option to invite after kicking would also help very much to stop that.
