No guarantees, but I believe you SHOULD be receiving the BA-marketed flights as if they're BA flights.
To earn AAdvantage® miles when you fly on British Airways marketed and operated flights as well as British Airways codeshare flights operated by oneworld® carriers and affiliates.
For travel August 1, 2016 or later, travel on any eligible purchased, published fare ticket on an American marketed flight (flights sold under an American flight number) will earn mileage credit based on the ticket price (base fare plus any mandatory carrier-imposed fees).
The T&C don't specify rules for BA-marketed, AA-operated, but when looking at the two items above, it's clear to me at least that you should be earning at the BA rates.

AA operates from ORD, PHL CLT and JFK to DUB
IB flies MIA and LAX amongst others at least to MAD, and possibly also to BCN in many cases.
AA has lots of other flights into Europe which (may) have BA codeshares on them.
I've not checked whether it would be possible to route using the BA codeshare on EI Flights to DUB, but they have a very good premium cabin option also to 10 or 11 US cities, and BA do codeshare on those flights, but I suspect it might take a BA call centre agent or good TA to book this routing if you were interested.

Yes, "marketed" is what matters, not "operated". But the problem, as I understand it, is that OP is seeing a BA flight # from Expedia and an AA flight # from AA, so the question is whether AA will consider the flight to be BA-marketed in the first place. I think it will, but OP should hang onto everything received from Expedia just in case.

A very, very quick scan on Matrix throws up the following, but no doubt someone can do much better:
