One of the ported versions of the CC-BY license prohibits switching to
CC-BY-SA.

Depending upon legal jurisdiction that the copyright was filed in,
they might be able to do that.  However, CC-BY requires correct
attribution. Depending upon how attribution in the document is
handled, they may not be in compliance with that.  If that is
breached, then it is copyright infringement.

CC-BY-NC-SA, and CC-NC-ND theoretically prohibit that.  However, they
also have an implied prohibition of usage by any non 501(c) 3
organization from utilizing the material.
