Yes, they're going to look at it because by rule they have to but they're not going to the monitor to come up with a ruling, or at least they shouldn't be. The women's CCA manual says:

I added the emphasis. I know I'm quoting the women's manual so if the men's manual is any different let me know. However I doubt that it is since the review critera for last-second shots is the same in both codes. The C went up with the touchdown signal after the ball went in so he didn't have to do anything else to show it was a made three-point goal. Once he did that, the crew had to come up with
"indisputable video evidence to overturn the ruling on the court." (CCA manual again)
