Is there a set of rules that addresses drawn games? ....a Chess.com comitttee to rule on draws?....an algorithm that detects drawn games?

No committes required... all the common drawing rules apply.  :)

(1) Draw by repeating a position 3 times

(2) Draw by 50 moves with no capture or pawn move

(3) Draw by no side has enough material to ever score a checkmate

(4) Draw by mutual agreement

(5) Draw by stalemate (one side is not in check and can't make a legal move)
