Offer Rescinded for Low GPA?

I put no GPA on my resume but the company is asking for it in a background check form. I have a really bad GPA below 3.0. Is it likely they rescind my offer? This is for a consulting firm, non-strategy. It hasn't been an issue before in my career but because it hasn't been on any background check form. Now, the background check form asks for it.

Either there is or isn't a GPA requirement. Should I ask about that? Have you seen any offer rescinded because of low GPA years into a career?
