There are some points that must happen for a backcourt violation to be called. In order, they are:
Team A must have team control in their frontcourt
Team A is the last team to touch the ball before it goes to the backcourt
Team A is the first team to touch the ball after it goes to the backcourt
Since there is no team control during a throw-in, and A2 was ruled to never have control, stipulation (1) was not met, therefore, the other points are moot.
No violation.
