Higher seed hosts except a team cannot be the visitor three times in a row. If a team travels the first two rounds they host the third round even if seeded higher.

to clarify, don’t think it’s a rule, but it may be mathematically impossible anyway

Nm

1st round

31 over 2
18 over 15- 2nd round 31 travels again

Now

26 over 7
23 over 10- 26 travels again

So let’s say (but highly unlikely) 26 meets 31 in the quarterfinal. 31 has to travel three weeks in a row. If they win they travel four weeks in a row now because the semifinal is at the higher seed

Exactly. And yes, it is a rule. Higher seed is home, unless they were previously home and the lower team previously traveled. Higher team is home regardless of travel in the semis.
