A2 is shooter, so continuous motion does not apply. In fact, if A1 releases pass while in air and hits B1, it is extremely unlikely that A1's pass reaches A2 for a catch and shoot before the contact. If this is going to be a foul either way, it happended before the shot unless we are on the moon.
Play (ignoring all the extra parts): A2 begins a try. Before the ball is released B1 fouls A1. A2's attempt goes through the basket.

Ruling: Continuous motion applies. Count the basket. Award A1 a 1-and-1, or A the ball for the throw in.

Continuous motion applies anytime the defense fouls once a try has begun. The shooter need not be fouled.

I knew I'd get someone on this; I didn't think it would be you.

Not sure how you got me. A1 fouled B1, not vice versa. Foul on offense, continuous motion does not apply.
