The official administering the throw- in, raises his fist for a foul. A2 continues and stumbles and lands a forearm into player B3 jaw (not intentional but a solid hit). The crew huddles and calls a technical (1) on B2 and ignores the second foul. B2 shoots 2 free throws and gets the ball at half court. I understand a dead ball technical, but I don't think the second foul (technical) should have been ignored. If it was called would it be simultaneous technical or each administered separately.

I think you are NOT asking whether either (or both) should be called, but what to do if they are both called (in a similar play)
IF the second contact rose to the level of a Intentional Foul (NCAAW) or a T (FED) then:
NCAAW: The fouls would offset and we'd resume POI
FED: It's a little hard to judge from the words, but I would tend to NOT view this as simultaneous, but rather retaliatory (not a rule book term), so I'd penalize both. Shoot the FTs in the order the fouls occurred and give the ball to the last offended team at the division line for a throw-in
