I made seat reservations through the Emirates web site. I am UA FF (not Skywards).
Did you select bulkhead seats? If so they may have moved you to make way for a pax travelling with infant so they could have the bassinet. I notice that when you go to select these seats online a message is displayed warning you that they may move you if a pax with infant needs the seat.

Otherwise, I find it highly unusual they would move you. It's never happened to me, although I have always had Skywards membership when selecting seats.

Did you use OLCI?
