I'm not in a position to look into it right now, but is there a part of the EULA that gives consent to detect ad blockers, and would that be good enough for the law referenced?

Probably not.

A contract term that is illegal under local laws cannot be enforced.

If the process they are using to detect adblockers breaches EU laws, they cannot use the EULA to allow them to break the law.

No, consent can't be hidden in tos
