This issue may well not be down to accidental touch protection. Could well be the press side key 5 times for emergency sos. This can be turned off in settings > safety and emergency > emergency sos.
I was once pressing the wrong button to turn my buds down. Wondering why volume wasn't going down. Just had a very loud and unusual sound in my ear. Pulled my phone out to see I was calling emergency services. Panicked and ended call just in time. Yeah I was pressing the power button, not volume.
