It's not using sudo. It's using dbus/hal. By default the policy in
fedora is to allow users on the console to shutdown/reboot with
dbus/hal.

I think you need to modify your: 

/usr/share/hal/fdi/policy/10osvendor/10-power-mgmt-policy.fdi

and restart hal. 

Unfortunately, hal is not very well documented, and I haven't ever had
the need to disable shutdown/reboot, so not exactly sure which lines
you need to change. :(

Hopefully that at least points you in the right direction.
