On first glance it looks like those particular pads were not attached to any traces. If I had to guess I would say that your rework profile got hot enough to melt away the glue holding the pads to the board and they came away with your part when you

thanks kpm. agree the cause of those pads lifting. all of them were no connects so they cannot be the cause of the electrical failure. when the bga was removed, all the solder balls on the pcb turned into conical shape due to the separation, except
