ASA 8.3.G

"No runner may return to touch a missed base or one left too soon after a following runner has scored or once the runner leaves the field of play."

It doesn't say "touch" home plate, but "scored". As we all know, a runner is considered to have touched any base once they have passed it. Therefore, in this scenario, the second runner has scored which means #1 cannot return to touch home plate.
