missed 1B. A proper appeal is made. Since the appeal was
upheld, would any of the runs count?
No. ASA 5-5-B-1
No run shall be scored if the third out of the inning is the result of a batter-runner begin called out prior to reaching first base or any other runner forced out due to the batter becoming a batter-runner.

ASA POE #1-J
If an appeal is honored at a base to which a runner was forced to advance and the out is a force out, no runs would score it is was the third out.

Also, would the play still be considered a force, since
base was missed and properly appealed?
Yes, I think so. In any case, it is still considered an out on the batter-runner at 1B, so the same rules apply.

Have not tried to locate in case book, however, I do believe that POE #38 agrees that I am correct.
It does.

ASA POE 38

A run will not score if the third out of an inning is a putout a first base (batter-runner)...
