How is this not resulting in an immediate referral to The Hague?

Outright murder by a national military.

There was, and still is, no declared war between the USA and Iran, the Iranian ship was unarmed and defenceless, no succour was offered for survivors, and the action took place in international waters.

This action was every bit as bad as the attack on Pearl Harbour.

The USA is a rogue, pariah state run by a Congress and Executive who are criminals.

"How is this not resulting in an immediate referral to The Hague?"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Service-Members%27_Protection_Act

'The American Service-Members' Protection Act, known as the Hague Invasion Act...gives the president power to use "all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court"'

Even simpler: The US is not a member of the ICC.
