    Hi just a wild guess but softbody sim hates intersecting polys you could raise the structure value to 1000 rasie hard and volume the second last value in the softbodys. Or you could try it with a cloth simulation .

    sorry i hadnt watched the png fullscreen the polyreduction makes no sense.

    if your model has to many polys for softbody make a copy reduce the polygons and make the low poly editable then get a meshdeformer under your highpoly drag yor lowpoly into the window of the meshdeformer , initiate and click on surface in lower part of the meshdeformer atribute window . then you can make a softbody sim with the lowpoly model and the sim will be transfered onto your highpoly model

    Also remember to choose an appropriate mesh style to simulate with. If the object is changing shape over time (or the force or object it intersects with ) an “Animated Mesh” is often better than Static mesh or Automatic.
