Is refusing to pay for hours worked, even if it’s unauthorized or disputed, wage theft?

I’m an hourly employee. Recently I did some OT work. My supervisor disputed a part of my OT, saying I should’ve performed that work during regular hours. Instead of just a warning not to do it again, he outright deducted those hours worked from my time sheet, so I’m in effect working for no pay for those hours. Is that considered wage theft?
