Well one of the considerations for Patreon seems to be whether the game has a story where the incest is just a part of that story and game but not the main dish or said differently whether the incest sex is basically the game and the price for the player playing the story as in a lot of grind and stairway to heaven slow burn progressions where the mom is always the last prize to keep players interested since dev does not trust his story or enjoyable gameplay to keep gamers around. Of course that is not a discussion you want to have with an individual at a company where you do not even can call on case law and prior interpretations, where as a dev you are dependent on your income you make there and going to court is an expensive, laborious time consuming process with high anxiety.1 game got axed due step siblings having sex (once) so case by case.
Now my personal opinion is that Patreon as a company is not the one that should enforce those laws, for that we have politicians and judges to decide what falls under free speech and artistic freedom and not boards of companies. Especially when it basically comes down to a much more further reaching censorship as is in law in almost the whole world.
Unfortunately I do not see it happening that one of the freedom of speech foundations will rise and come stand behind developers of adult porn games to protect free speech.
