1. Are all technical fouls 2-shots? (yes) Is there ever a time it is one shot? (no)
2. Can a player come off the bench to shoot the technical free-throws? (yes)
3. In the case of a "flagrant" foul without injury....is there ever a time the person who gets fouled does not shoot the free-throws? (actually saw this happen....officials treated it the same as a "technical" and I thought they were wrong.)

I'll answer with the assumption you're talking about high school rules.
1 a). Yes, every time. Two shots and the ball at the division line.
1 b). No, this is an NBA rule; get used to questions that indicate the person is watching too much NBA.
2. Yes.
3. Depends. If it's a flagrant personal (typically a foul with inent to injur on a shooter, but not always), the sub should shoot. If it's a flagrant technical foul (someone takes a swing when the ball is dead, for example), anyone can shoot.
In order to know if they got it wrong, we need more information. What was the foul? What was the status of the ball when it was committed? Who shot the free throw (was it another player on the court or was it the sub?)
