Status benefits dep. on booking channel/rate type - do AAA rates give full benefits?

I know that I'm not eligible for all benefits like executive lounge access when booking through an OTA like Expedia.
But does it also matters what rate I chose when booking on hilton.com? E.g., I'm looking to make a reservation where the AAA rate is cheaper than the HHonors Flexible rate. If I book the AAA rate, will I still get full points and all benefits like upgrades, lounge access etc.?

Thanks,
Tobias
