@gkmizuno correct, the question before the court was more open ended, whether the state court erred.

And the court found that yes, the state court was in error because it lacked the legal authority to conclude that Trump is an insurrectionist with regard to ballot access and the 14th amendment.

And so, without the legal finding of being an insurrectionist, there's no paradox of an insurrectionist being in office, because legally the person would not have been found to be an insurrectionist.

The person in office is simply the person in office, as far as the law is concerned, again regardless of what you are I might think about whether the person is or is not an insurrectionist.

But it's the resolution of the situation you're thinking of.
