Try debug the flow to see what is blocking the traffic.

It appears you have most things covered. One additional thing that might be a good idea is to create an app-filter for high risk score apps and app categories and use the filter for an app block rule. Using an app filter can be useful, because it scales automatically as new app-ids are created, if they fall into the right criteria, they'll automatically get added to that app filter.

Are you using security profiles in the related rule? Did your check the related UTM logs?

Yes, I do, but my security profile is just monitoring it. I'm using web filter just to see the URLs that are being accessed and couldn't find the web filter log for this deny event, so probably it was blocked before the rating.
