Can a company count the time it takes to leave the work area as my unpaid break?

Sorry if not allowed. Didn’t get any response from legaladvice so I will try here. A company just let me go because I wasn’t back on the floor after 28 minutes of my 30 minute unpaid break. I got off the floor at 11:01 and at 11:29 the manager was telling me I should already be at my machine. I tried to tell them I had only been on break for 28 minutes, and they said it didn’t matter. They seemed confident that they were right to fire me. Are they? I should add i don’t clock in/out for break. They automatically take 30 minutes off my hours worked
