If I understand the situation. Maryland took a shot with one second left on the shot clock and the ball barely touched the rim (or didn't touch the rim). The officials ruled it touched the rim.

I don't think this situation can be reviewed by officials. There is a long list of provisions in the rulebook for replay use; a 2 or 3 point shot, who is the correct free throw shooter, shot is released before or after the end of the game, did a fight occur etc.... I think the officials were correct in their interpretation of the rule, whether they got the call right, I don't know. I didn't see the game nor the highlights.
