I know this effected ranking, and because of that it makes me very upset. So for all teams involved, I'm sorry that this happened, and I sincerely hope it didn't effect anyone too greatly.
It looks like rescoring that match would have raised 1730 a couple of spots in the draft. They were already guaranteed to be an alliance captain. Would they have still said yes to 4522? I think so. Probably no difference here.

What is more interesting is that 1810 would have dropped several spots with the loss. That would have changed the bottom portion of the draft.

Original Ranking --- Corrected Ranking
0118 -------------- 0118
1986 -------------- 1986
4522 -------------- 4522
1775 -------------- 1775
1806 -------------- 1730 (assuming the correction included 10 assist points)
3528 -------------- 1806
1730 -------------- 3528
1810 -------------- 3928
3928 -------------- 5119
5119 -------------- 3612
3612 -------------- 1810

Alliance Selection went thusly:
1. 118-1986-1723 (W)
2. 4522-1730-2346 (SF)
3. 1775-1806-935 (F)
4. 3528-1825-1939 (SF)
5. 1810-1987-4646 (QF)
6. 3928-3172-2410 (QF)
7. 5119-2164-1982 (QF)
8. 3612-1802-2457 (QF)

Good news is that everyone who was an alliance captain would have still been an alliance captain. None of the lower seeds pulled off the upset in quarterfinals as it was. But who knows what the Butterfly Effect would have yielded.
