If inbounds, that basically makes it a throwin. If they touch it again, then it is a violation for one of two possible reasons....a throwin violation or an OOB violation...doesn't really matter which unless it was an AP throwin.

If it bounces OOB, it is nothing as long as it doesn't then go inbounds.....which would make it an illegal throwin.

Am I missing a situation where A would retain the AP after violating on the throw-in?
I think, in hindsight, you're correct. You can not get to an OOB violation at all with the thrower touching it...it would always be a throwin violation. For an OOB violation to be possible, it would take someone else touching the ball (which would switch the arrow and it would no longer be a throwin violation).
