Seems the museum is not happy about the incident either. Since museums like this one are large organizations, staffed by a core of paid professionals, but a lot of the leg work done by an army of volunteers, someone did a "loose cannon" act here. I have not found a follow up article, but it appears the museum wants to restore the image to its original form with the cigar. (article link in blue below)
