Iata rules state that the airline should ensure that the passenger has the correct visa. If failing that, and the passenger is denied entry to the destination country, the airline is subjected to a fine.

The airline has no obligation towards a passenger who doesn't have the right visa.
Any airline that flies internationally will have a clause in their conditions of carriage that says it is the passenger's own responsibility to have the right travel documentation. They reserve the right to deny you boarding if you're lacking a visa you need, but that is in no way a promise (to you!) that they will do so.
They generally have an obligation towards the country that denied entry, to transport you back where you come from. They will often try to bill you for that separately once the dust has settled.
It might be worth noting that the airline's obligation mentioned in the IATA rules is directed toward the destination country. The statement of the rule that is given in the question suggests that the rule could be interpreted as concerning an obligation to the passenger, which it certainly does not.
