Yes, Brazil has been blatantly benefiting from "home-cooking" by the officials. In fact, as much as I like the "let em play" approach I think the refs had been terrible at controlling the dirtier plays. A few yellows and penalty kicks here and there change the whole complexion of the match, but when refs let dudes get away with too much shit, it just keeps escalating and escalating, case in point: Uruguay's last match or even Ghana yesterday. Dudes just keep blurring the line between physical and dirty play, and that is where a few well timed whistles are supposed to balance it out.
