What's the rule citation for the "zombie" ball between the goaltend and the player control foul?

Why does one act make the ball "deader" than the other act?

Dead is dead? Like a door nail? Right?

If the ball is not dead after the first goal tend, what happens if somebody else also goal tends it or commits basket interference?
