The decision was unanimous after Russia's Anti Doping Agency manipulated data given to investigators earlier this year, the BBC reported.
Russia was forced to give the investigators information after it had been reinstated last year after being suspended for doping.
Those athletes who were not part of the doping investigation will still be able to compete, but will be unaffiliated, The Washington Post reported.
They were also permitted to compete in last year's Winter Olympics in South Korea, The New York Times reported.
Russian officials are expected to appeal the decision, the Times reported.
