The Law is clear, with the offence being an ATTEMPT to deceive, rather than the batsman actually being deceived.
It’s up to the umpires to decide if there was such an attempt. If so, then it's Not out, 5 Penalty runs + the 2 they ran, and batsmen choose who faces next ball.

1) The FIRST contact must be inside the boundary, and

The Umpires were right. Law 42.3.1 states:
"Throwing the ball at a player, umpire or another person in an inappropriate & dangerous manner shall constitute a Level 2 offence."
Five penalty runs is the correct outcome especially as the striker made no attempt to leave his ground
