Doesn't matter how many break the huddle, what matters is that when a substitute reports the player he reports in for must leave immediately.
In the play described, the officiating crew must decide if the team was trying to deceive. If in their judgment he was then you have a flag for IP. Also, if you don't believe a specific rule was broken, but in your judgement a deception occured or could have occured, then impose rules, 10-5-1c and 9-9 where an Unsportsmanlike or IP would be quite acceptable.
