Would this be true regardless of how many times the defense touched it or if they established control?

Example- A1 establishes control in the frontcourt. B1 steals the ball establishes control and remains on the same end of the court. A1 knocks the ball away from B1 into the opposite end (backcourt for team A) and retrieves it.

Is this a backcourt violation on A1?

If B1 establishes control, then A is now on defense. The number of times it is touched isn't relevant, but team control is.
