Perhaps, but I cannot feel comfortable about it until I see an accounting.
We are all just speculating.
It's too bad we cannot investigate the red flag and find out the facts.

You are right that there are probably forms of "support" that do not amount to a contribution to ICANN in the eyes of the IRS. But then again, there are probably forms of "support" that do.
It probably requires a tax expert to determine whether, for example, a payment for a telephone bridge to support a GAC telephone meeting, is a contribution to ICANN or not.
I wonder what ICANN's form 990 filing shows about GAC expenses and contributions?

Yes. And the GAC Secretariat (Australian Govt
employees to take minutes, write documents,
update the GAC web site, etc).
The money will just be running expenses of GAC.
