A likely explanation is that there is some manually managed data that was configured as such through File Explorer. The easiest way to force that data to another pool is to go to the SmartPools settings page and select the two checkboxes that include files that are manually managed:
After you have done that, run another SmartPools job. That should move the remaining data over to the proper pool, overriding any File Explorer changes that had been made.

Another possibility that I've seen is from snapshots. I have seen that snapshot data does not move between the pools even after you fire off a manual SmartPool run. Check if you have a lot of data in snapshots.
