During a TO the ball is dead for 60/75/30 seconds until the
time it is made available. During the 30 second period to
replace a disqualified player the ball remains dead. Among
the things you can't do during a dead ball is score points.

Having said all that, I agree that it might be appropriate
to just let the FT's stand in this case. Maybe.
Becasue it is not a 2-10 error is exactly why you leave the points up. These were not improperly awarded free throws, just imporperly administered timing wise. There is nothing in the rules or case book to support taking points off the board, unless they were improperly awarded.
