The type of stud is controlled closely by the IRB. On their site there is an excellent explanation of the requirements with sizes and graphics as well. Plus, they have up to date lists of approved equipment allowed. Certainly worth a visit

Moulded boots don't have the same amount of turn as a normal rugby boot and can cause injuries such as broken ankles and muscle strains which i have experienced myself. Also steel blades could be sharpened not maliciously but could cause cut, this is why referees check studs before kick off. I hope this helps Jack
