Illegal Forward Pass?

I saw this in the JV game a few weeks ago and I want your input. 2nd and 10 for A at the 50. A1 drops back to pass and is under heavy pressure from the defense. To prevent from taking a loss, A1 throws the ball away, but it is clearly a BACKWARD pass which goes out of bounds. The covering official marks the out of bounds spot. My question is: Can you have an illegal forward pass that prevents a loss of yardage on a backward pass? Thanks to all in advance for your thoughts.
