I'm thinking that you accepted coach because you wanted to get home, and not wait for a later flight with 1st class available.
I do think you have a case to get your miles back, however.

Actually the fact that Jet Airways was late does factor into this since I'm assuming this was all part of one award. The fact that it was an international business award may work against the OP as well. AA might say that since the international portion of the return trip was flown in business class they are owed nothing. If they do something for you I wouldn't expect much. They will probably just deposit some bonus miles, a couple of thousand perhaps, back into your account.
