You won't get the rebate on that booking as you weren't an AAdvantage cardholder at the time of reservation.
If you're EXP, and the award was still available for a new booking, you could cancel and rebook and likely get it, but otherwise you'd have to pay $150 to redeposit the miles and that would not be worth it. You'll have to book a new award now to get the 10% rebate.
