I hate to disagree with Redding, of course.

But if you read this rule, the distance penalty is cancelled. Fine there. Step 2 - Scores by the team that committed the penalty are cancelled. In this case, the score is not made by the team that committed the penalty - it's scored by the other team. This is more similar to a play where A goes for 2, B commits a distance penalty, and A scores anyway - the penalty is declined, but the score is not cancelled.
