If you're the admin, check your Profanity Filter.

You can block different degrees of profanity from appearing on your Page. Facebook determines what to block by using the most commonly reported words and phrases marked offensive by the community. To turn on the profanity filter:

  • Click Settings at the top of your Page.
  • Click Profanity Filter.
  • Select Medium or Strong.
  • Click Save Changes.

Some slang words or content in the post could be causing the rejection.

I hope this is helpful to you!
