This scandal began last month when Ulander competed well in a qualifying skeleton sled race and hoped to win enough qualifying points to secure a spot on the U.S.
Olympic team.
But she alleges a Canadian coach manipulated the point system, costing her what would have been a sixth trip to the Winter Games.
The U.S.
Olympic and Paralympic Committee called Ulander's treatment unfair.
A major international sled federation also said point manipulation did occur.
But Ulander was still sidelined, so she filed one last appeal to the Court of Arbitration for Sport.
A review panel ruled that for technical reasons, they lacked jurisdiction, leaving Ulander out of these Olympics.

It's common for U.S.
agents, including those from Homeland Security, to help with security at big international events like the Olympics.
But Italians gathered here, including Francesco Tattoni, say they've been horrified by video of ICE agents operating violently in Minneapolis.
Many protesters carried photographs of Rene Macklin-Good and Alex Preddy who were killed by ICE agents.
Italy's government has downplayed the role ICE will play providing security for the Winter Games, which open officially next Friday.
