From Airbus Safety First ...
"It is important to know that if such a thrust increase was applied when
the aircraft is already stalled, the longitudinal effect would bring the
aircraft further into the stall, to a situation possibly unrecoverable."
I believe that Airbus had worked out from the ACARS sequence the most likely scenario, and that statement is valid when compared with the Thrust and Pitch Attitude graphic shown on the previous page.

We now know that there was no escape as they didn't 'know' they were STALLED.
