Does automod have a way to handling submissions after they've been caught by Reddit's spam filter? If so, how can I make automod respond to posts caught by it?

Post Body
I've seen a good number of legitimate posts on my subreddit r/kamenrider get caught by the filter, including some of my own before I became a mod there! I've never written rules or whatever for automod, but looking at the full documentation, it doesn't seem to say anything about working with posts caught by the spam filter.

In all honesty,
how‽
You removed them from the modqueue a year ago, and never gave us a way to add them back.
Our spam queue looks like this on a slow day; can you spot the two filtered posts I missed?
On a bad day, it starts to look more like this; on occasions when those guys find a way around our aggressive auto-banning we'll wake up to as many as dozens of pages of the same comment in the spam feed!!
I feel like we're in the dark here on something, so can you please enlighten us; how is it physically possible, with the tools provided, to repeatedly scan thru the same list of hundreds of removed items, multiple times a day, to locate the several in there that have not already been actioned? If only Reddit had some kind of feature where, once a decision was made as to whether a post should be approved or removed, it dropped off the queue; we could do a quick check every so often to make sure it was empty, and clear it out if it isn't, how great would that be!
Most not-small communities that don't have access to custom tooling will not be able to find the resources to do this. Given the number of sidebars I've read that say something to the effect of "If your post doesn't appear in /new, complain to Reddit, don't message us about spam-filtered posts, etc.", I get the feeling that even larger communities are also electing to just not review these posts.
