Assuming the ball passed over the backboard, I don't think this is a correctable error.
The violation here is for the ball to go over the top of a backboard (which it may or may have not done - a shot from deep in the corner can be legal). That violation, however, is totally different from the basket scoring, and must be called separately.
Let's say A1 had the ball OOB, and inbounded to A2 who was standing right next to the sideline. A2 shoots a 3-pt. shot, it's good, and B inbounds the ball. The Trail official, covering the play, then blows his whistle and says the back of A2's heel was touching OOB, but he missed it and forgot to call the violation. Would you say that the basket should be cancelled, and the ball given to B on the sideline?
