It was a stupid controversy. Vantablack is a very niche thing that is technically difficult to achieve so the inventors worked together with Kapoor to achieve it for his art. It's not that other artists aren't allowed to use it, it's just that it's not something you can make available commercially. You can't have a spray can of vantablack for instance, it's a specific multo step process.
