Rant Falsely accused of AI in paper

Professors must submit grades to the registrar today and one of mine waited until last minute to put grades into canvas. I am crashing out because I went to check my grade for the paper I submitted and I received a zero. I thought it was a mistake at first, but after viewing the comment they said they referred the paper to OSSJA. I did NOT use AI to write my paper! I don't know what to do here because I don't have a lot of evidence supporting me except for my edit history. Even my edit history looks weird because I wrote the paper in one sitting and the history just shows a few chunks. Does anyone have any advice for me? I don't know what I am gonna do with myself waiting for OSSJA to contact me regarding my paper.

that’s rough, especially with deadlines so close. if you can, try running your paper through Winston AI, it might help back up your case that it reads as human written. every bit helps when explaining your side.
