But it is not a given. Any runners which legally advanced during the play are not returned. If you insist that you advance every runner one base from the point of the misapplied rule, you may have to bring some runners back.
In the CB, it just mentioned advancing runners, which means the assumption is that they were forced to move due to the BR being awarded 1B.
In rectifying such a situation, you correct the status of the player which was affected by the out call, the batter. There is nothing stating you award the runners everything.

I have now is that must umpire come from the test not understanding that with the "D" answer that this is a VALID PROTEST and the test confuses this point.

The point of the test is to challenge the umpire. After all, you certainly don't have a multiple choice list when you're out on the field making the call.
