Admins can use the Shredder functionality to remove transactions which contain 
the offending password.  There's not facility to redact the message itself, as

There is, but it's only accessible to those with the RT SuperUser right; for 
fairly obvious reasons it's not exposed to ordinary users (or even privileged 
users).

Shredder also has a command line interface.
