Cup holders St Mirren had a goal disallowed when when Eseosa Sule was ruled to have fouled goalkeeper Aston Oxborough before Samuel Ramos fired into the net.
Then, two minutes before full-time, Dunfermline’s Chris Kane scored from the penalty spot after Marcus Fraser was ruled to have fouled Keith Bray.
St Mirren say they “will fully assess the notice before determining our next steps” but “will make no further comment at this time”.
The St Mirren Mercury has reported that McLeish insisted his televised remark regarding Murdoch was a “tongue-in-cheek”.
St Mirren still won their group, with Dunfermline progressing as runners-up, but the defeat meant they were not seeded for the last-16 and were drawn away to Rangers.
