Currently the autoreview group is implicit and cannot be directly removed or
granted. It can be removed only indirectly by blocking a user for a second but
it's not very elegant solution. IMHO autoreview should work in the same way as
editor. 

On Polish wikipedia this issue has been one of the reasons against introducing
the autoreview group. We should be able to strip a vandal from this privilege
or promote a non-vandal. 

If you decide to solve this bug, you could use the opportunity to remove the
copy-pasted code in checkAutoPromote() and maybeMakeEditor(). Or even better,
to have a look at bug 24948.
