(I'm going through old bug reports that unfortunately weren't resolved
at the time.)

I can reproduce this in Emacs 29, too -- it seems to be because :math:
is matched by:

    (fld-tag ":" fldnam-tag ":") ; A field marker.

which is part of 

    ;; Paragraphs (`par')
    (par-tag- (:alt itmany-tag fld-tag opt-tag fncdef-tag-2 dir-tag-3 exm-tag)
	      ) ; Tag at the beginning of a paragraph; there may be groups in
		; certain cases.

which is in

  (setq-local adaptive-fill-regexp (rst-re 'hws-tag 'par-tag- "?" 'hws-tag))

I've added Stefan to the CCs; perhaps he has some comments.
