According to the technical FAQ:

5e) Is it allowed to use the extra buttons on a gaming mouse/keyboard as hotkeys?

Yes, you can generally use the buttons of your gaming mouse or keyboard like hotkeys. However, please note that you may not bind more than one action to a button. For instance, it is acceptable to bind to a button the drinking of a mana potion. However, it would be illegal to assign to a button the drinking of a mana potion and then casting "exura". Thereby, it does not matter if the action is performed by pressing a combination of keys (e.g. CTRL+F1) or a single key (e.g. F1).

So technically, it is allowed to use the scroll wheel to perform a single action. I think it's unlikely that someone would get deleted just for "spamming" a hotkey.

And obviously, macros that do automated things are not allowed (auto-heal, auto-loot, auto-equip, etc.)
