This is not a bug. The rule does not state that the game automatically ends in a draw, but rather that one of the players must claim it:
The game is drawn, upon a correct claim by the player having the move, if
- (a) he writes on his scoresheet, and declares to the arbiter his intention to make a move which shall result in the last 50 moves having been made by each player without the movement of any pawn and without the capture of any piece, or
- (b) the last 50 consecutive moves have been made by each player without the movement of any pawn and without the capture of any piece.
(The emphasis is mine)
Hi all Chess.com staff!
Yesterday, I saw that Chess.com Live Chess does not handle 50 Moves rule correctly. So there is a bug.
50-Moves Rule: If there is at least 50 moves played without any pawn move or piece sacrifice, game automatically ends with draw!
And here is the game I played 115 move. From 55. move to 115 no pawn move or piece sacrifice was done, but the game didnt end with draw, so I lost by time.

I also attached it as PGN below:
