How was it changed?

live ball foul to dead ball foul.

it seemed odd to me because the penalty was during what was perceived to be a live ball, but the play was determined to have been over when his knee hit the ground, thus, anything that happened after that determination should be null and void. if the run back was negated so should have the penalty been negated.

That's not how the rules work. Penalty was the correct calling and changing it to a dead ball penalty was correct.
