I missed that part. Thanks for the correction.
Looking at the court's opinion (PDF), it appears this case did not raise that issue. I think it's unlikely it would be considered a bill of attainder because what it does is technically not punishment, but that's a question for people who know more about law than I do.
A forced sale below market value is absolutely punishment. And being banned is 100% punitive.
