shows a couple of open issues which you could look at.

job pausing/stopping doesn’t work in 2.0.4.5_beta_2018-11-28 #3565 has updates since its mention above.
Fix pause and resume, and check for cancel while uploading #3712 seems itself paused. I’m not sure why.
“pause” doesn’t stop the upload #1088 is an older issue.

2.0.5.104_canary_2020-03-25

Improved logic around throttle values, thanks @seantempleton

is the release note for

Fix bandwidth throttling inconsistency #4127

which fixes confusion

–throttle-download ignored, --throttle-upload throttles download too #4115

where settings were applied in the wrong way, however the problem in 2.0.5.1 (what release is yours?) would not result in no upload throttling, but in download throttling when you wanted just upload throttling.

Basically, upload throttling seems to be working for mostpeople. Further proof is it’s caused issues like timeouts (needs settings adjustment) and data corruption (bug is fixed). On the other hand, there’s this:

which has some troubleshooting ideas and is currently waiting to hear results from the person reporting.
Perhaps you can follow up on some of the ideas, otherwise I’m not sure if any progress can be made…
