Probably the valves are ruined. Take the valve cover off and look for anything obviously broken or mangled. Do a compression test. If you have cylinder(s) with zero compression, you'll have to take the head off and rebuild it. Or replace the whole engine.

Wow, I've heard of people accidentally doing a 1-2-1 shift and killing their engine/transmission... But a 5-2? Something is DEAD.
