To be clear, is he in hot water over what he said about the ADL? Or the fact that Nazi's are proliferating on his platform and advertisers don't like it?

Short answer: yes.

Longer answer: he's in slightly-higher-than-warm water over his interactions with the ADL and Nazis/antisemitism on the site. He's in hot water over his personal promotion and espousal of antisemitism and ads being displayed next to Nazi content.
