BotSailor can also control forwarded content.
You can remove:

Forwarded messages containing links
This prevents users from bringing spam content from other Telegram groups.

Step 11: Admin Filter Testing
The option:

The system checks whether the filter works.
After testing, disable this option because admins usually need unrestricted access.
