Re a previous poster's comments about asymmetry, the track was remarkably constant until the 30000ft/min descent rate was well established. This implies the autopilot may have remained engaged for some time. Even an engine failure with autopilot engaged would show some track change.
Edited,
There was also clearly a recovery and even a brief climb so the initial upset event cannot have been totally catastrophic.
