I can't imagine they'd be getting away with it if it was illegal. Especially with all of the press they get. That's a bit of an absurd thing to say. It's probably just no one is lining the pockets of any politicians to stop Tesla from doing it.
However, the article does state that the way the law works is that if a franchised dealer exists in the state then the company can't sell there. If there's no franchised dealer then they can sell direct. However, that would obviously require shutting down every dealer and that is kind of a bad thing to do all at once, or at all.
