After the trip, I called Delta back and asked them deposit original itinerary back to my account since this is not my fault.

I think that's the only way to get miles on 2 programs.

Yes, but then you're not getting miles in two different programs for the same flight; you're getting miles for two different flights: the one you were supposed to fly, and the one you actually flew.
