A common statement is which a person attempts to convey that "rules" (policies, laws, etc) must be followed irrespective of personal intuition or any sense of what really makes sense. "Rules is rules" conveys that it is the rule, and nothing else, that determines a certain action or inaction. The statement is usually used in a context where it is believed that the rule "doesn't make sense", but it must be followed anyway, simply because it is a rule.
Unfortunately our company doesn't allow us to send Excel files because they might have malicious macros embedded. Even if I know an Excel files is safe, I can not send it to you via email because "rules is rules".
