I believe this is because the job to grant badges will run daily. The badge is given because the user liked that post.

You’ll likely have to remove the like on that post from that user, probably using the Rails console. Or perhaps, increase the `post undo action window mins` setting temporarily, unlike the post, then revert the setting.
