Shouldn't this be rejected by reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname

No.

$ dig -x 202.70.195.135
[snip]
135.195.70.202.in-addr.arpa. 86400 IN PTR 219-83-128-135.static.iolnetcom.com.
$ dig 219-83-128-135.static.iolnetcom.com.

The postifx log says:

"RCPT from unknown[202.70.195.135]"

Regardless of the results from dig, doesn't the above log entry mean that postfix is unable to find an rdns entry for this IP and that reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname should be rejecting the connection?

No. Compare the description of "reject_unknown_client_hostname" vs. "reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname"
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#reject_unknown_client_hostname
http://www.postfix.org/postconf.5.html#reject_unknown_reverse_client_hostname

The behavior you see is correct and consistent with the documentation.
