I would say that the award error could be fixed without a problem until the next pitch is made. This is why it is a good idea for umpires to confer on base awards. You take one shot at it and get it right the 1st time.
If an error in awarding the bases, such as you stated, is made and not noticed by anyone until after the next pitch, then everyone is stuck with the mistake. Everything in baseball previous to a pitch is legalized when a pitch is made. Also, there could be no protest as a pitch was made to legalize the error.
