While it's true that there's a policy to _try_ and accommodate upgraded, ticketed AA pax on OneWorld partners, over time its become evident (even if not entirely clear) that it's much easier (for sure) and much more likely on JBV/ATI partners as opposed to other OneWorld airlines.
I believe they can rebook you directly in J, but it all depends on the load factors of the rebooking flight.

Can someone give any insight if AA will bent any rules, including MPM, and valid fare basis to rebook passengers due to IRROPs?

i've misconnected DFW-ICN twice in the past 6 months. PNS-DFW-ICN, was in paid first. When PNS went mechanical, told the agent to rebook in KE F. No problem. MCI-DFW-ICN (J) but had used SWU to upgrade to F. Told agent to rebook me EY DFW-AUH-ICN. No problem. But would only rebook in J not F. Understandable.
