You're the PU. If the defense appeals, are you really going to rule R1 out for failing to touch home before R2 scores, even though R1 was clearly obstructed from initially touching it?

If there had been no R2 and R1 was tagged before touching the plate, would you have awarded R1 home and the score?
If so, then you still do that in the above, with R2 also scoring.
