As for what is officially "allowed", and getting a real read on what is ok, there's various differing info out there. eg.
Veloflex indicates an 18mm max internal width to run a 25mm tire hookless: https://www.veloflex.it/en/blog/post...-rims-coupling
Vittoria is similar: https://www.vittoria.com/ww/en/stori...rto-bike-tires

I typically refer to some charts that Mavic used to have up, but have taken down -- it marries both width compatibility with tire pressure, which makes sense. This would tell you that 21mm is the widest TSS(hookless) rim you can use for 25mm tires, but max of ~72psi.
eg
I'll agree that Zipp specifically doesn't say 25mm is ok on 23mm i.d. rims, but every review of the new Zipp 303S I can find mentions that it can be used with a 25mm tire. Zipps own tire pressure guide on this shows recommended pressures for 25mm tires.
