Referee Nick Walsh found no wrongdoing, and after a brief check by those in the VAR room, play was waved on.
McGregor delivered his verdict on the incident post-match: "It was probably a foul against me if anything," he said [Sky Sports].
"You get your body in - you've got to try and stop them from scoring. It's not a foul.
"He kicks me if anything. So, nah, no chance."
Interim Rangers head coach Barry Ferguson took a different mindset to McGregor. Indeed, he felt his team should have had a chance to score from 12 yards: "If that's in the middle of the pitch, it's a foul," he said.
"But it was in the box, and it wasn't given as a foul. I just need to move on quickly because I don't want to start saying things that're going to get me in trouble."
Ferguson and his team had to settle for a point as they were denied three consecutive victories against Celtic.
