Usually it doesn't. Or rather it happens when somebody with commit privileges asks to go emeritus. In theory we could revoke commit access in case people abuse it and that would require some sort of a super-majority vote of the PMC. But in practice this doesn't happen (because people don't abuse their rights, not because we'd ignore it). I've been involved in several ASF communities for more than 16 years now and recall two occasions for the ASF as a whole. What does happen is that people go away and stop using their privileges, but then we all hope they'll come back and contribute again sometime in the future.
