Correct.
Quote:
When he returns to touch it, the previous acquisition is negated, and the legal touch supersedes it.
Since that happens after the 3rd out in the OP, the run does not score.

A runner cannot return to touch a missed base after the 3rd out. The subsequent touch of the plate is meaningless, and the miss can be successfully appealed.
FED 8.2.2.M is not applicable because the runner is correcting his miss before the 3rd out.
