This was purely a presumption on my part however, and I want to check if I am wrong before asking AAdvantage.
Thanks in advance.

Independent of the challenge, points and/or miles are earned on a calendar year basis. So, the points/miles you earned least year are now gone from the yearly counter (although the miles live on in your Lifetime Miles counter).
So, you will need to earn the miles/points all over again this year to maintain/improve status.
Final answer: Don't call them because things have been handled properly.
Cheers.
