Nah an action doesn't have to be illegal to be immoral. I'd say that because "ought" implies "can" it only makes sense to call an action immoral if it can be avoided.
I think lying can be avoided. I don't think loopholes can be avoided. I think there's a fundamental infinite regress problem regarding loopholes whereby if exploiting a loophole becomes disallowed then the new loophole becomes almost exploiting it, and if that's disallowed the new loophole becomes almost almost exploiting it, and so on.
