Here's my perspective (I am not an expert):

God knows this priest's intent, and the intent of those who were baptized.

It's all good. God is god, not a genie. Doing the ceremony wrong might displease God, which is between the priest and God. It is a sin, if God decides it is.

Assuming those baptized are worthy of the benefits of baptism (which as a Baptist protestant, only gets you into the Church and has no bearing on your relationship with God, except that it is a demonstration of your bearing, not a magic spell), then they are all fine.

Some, including religious scholars, may disagree. That's fine with me.
