What stuff is generally not allowed in tournaments. Are custom padded jerseys? How about elbow pads, knee pads, padded pants, chest protectors?

Every tournament series is different.

This is the rule from my tournament regarding clothing
Clothing/padding – Clothing is limited to two layers maximum. No ponchos. No ghillie suites. No padded hopper covers. Any clothing or material that appears to be excessive padding in an attempt to stop a paintball breaking may be asked to be removed
Are they pretty much saying that no padding is allowed?

No, basically you cant run around in bubble wrap. Chest protects are normally a no go but padded jerseys and knee/elbow pads are fine. Bounce caps depend on the tournament series.

I don't think that they are saying that "no padding is allowed". I think they are trying to limit people walking on the field with ridiculous amounts of padding, and that anything they deem "excessive" they will ask you to remove.
Just don't walk on the field looking like this:

or this:

and I think you'll be okay.

Most tournaments will also not allow clear loaders, or clothing the color of the paint used in the tournament.
