Based on your error it seems error related to access right for the user with which you are trying to execute this script.

Apart from may be these actions are not allowed to be executed via script because RM module has many such restriction to maintain it's compliance and Record life cycles.

Hope you have gone through this article which has good description regarding all those actions.

It'll also be worth checking the user running the script has the correct RM role assigned: Define roles | Alfresco Documentation

The script is being run through the "rules" mechanism placed on a category inside of RM. As I understand it, that means that the script will run as the user that moves or changes the file that triggers the rule to run. In testing that is me, an administrator with full permission in the RM system. I am able to manually remove the cutoff using the "undo cutoff" button.

It seem in RM actions are run by the rmaction service, not the action service. Some RM actions seem to be fine running through the action service, but this one is not. Since rmaction is not exposed to javascript, we're looking at building a action that proxys an rm action, to let rm action do what magic it needs to do.
