It looks specific with references to violations and terms that allow the eviction. The lawful (legal) original lease supersedes any sublease. Not that it really matters (it doesn't), but did the sublease (yes, I know you say it wasn't a legal one) have anything to say on the subject? Are the passages cited in the eviction notice accurate?
If you are on an unapproved sub-lease, I doubt you have anything protecting you.

The lease says that either party can terminate with a 30 day notice.

A lease cannot supersede your rights under the law.

So from what I've read, it sounds like someone gave the other notice. While you should easily be able to fight this at least temporarily, you should definitely consider whether it's best for you to do so, especially if they had given you notice and you weren't compliant to the sublease that you signed with the master tenant.
We definitely aren't hearing the full story even from just your side of things, so there is absolutely nothing that we could even help point out to you. Just call the OTA.

Unilaterally? Usually it says that it has to be mutually agreed in writing yada yada. Regardless, there's lots of things in leases that aren't legal. CALL OTA IMMEDIATELY.
