Why is not a deist god considered immoral or at last amoral?

Is it because a deist god is said to have no involvement at all, make no demands, have no ethical implication?

I think you hit the crux of it there. Personal gods (especially of the Abrahamic flavor) always seem to have a "do as I say, not as I do" attitude. The deist god didn't say anything in the first place.
