Suppose for instance that there are 36 seconds to play and Team A has the ball down by 1 point. They run the shot clock down to 1 and fire up the shot. Game clock winding toward zero, and will expire before shot goes in. Based on the above, we don't review if the shot beat the shot clock, but it will determine the game. If you review the game buzzer, you must review shot clock buzzers. If you review at the end of the game, why not during the game? My opinion, don't review ever, it opens an ugly precedent.

You could disadvantage the opponent if you review a shot clock violation and end up allowing the basket. I may want to break on the make (and I can assure you that my team plans for this in this situation) and your review takes that opportunity away from me. Make the call (good or bad) and play on. End of half and end of game reviews would be best, IMO.
