The officials were incorrect in awarding the ball based on an accidental whistle.

If everyone reacts as if the official said, 1!" and goes for the rebound, then you give the ball to the team that rebounded it.

If only one person reacts, as in your play, you go to the AP arrow, as the officials mistake has placed one team at a disadvantage.

ok that is kinda where my mind was going with that. It seemed to be a mistake that caused a clear confusion and advantage.

Yeah, after I reread the OP and see that the official clearly erred in saying 2 shots, it really is dubious at that point.

That's why it's always good to have partners to back you up and not let you administer the FT with a screw up.
