The gate agents would be paging the passengers name on a PA throughout the airport unable to close the flight before realizing he is on board and non revved. Then he or she would be reported. Depends on the gate agent. Not all people are snitches.
The rules referenced clearly state you cannot even make a listing if you hold a confirmed ticket so, yes, the OP is actually in clear violation of his friend's company-provided travel policy. As a former AMR employee, I can assure the OP they take these things quite seriously and even having the duplicate booking is a sign of intended fraud (canceling the revenue ticket in favor of the D3 instead).
