Being demoted, but can’t using last of PTO because I “quit” despite working past my “last day”

This might be long, but I'll try my best to explain it. I work at Job A. Back in January, I had been offered a new position for Job B. At Job A, I submitted a notice, but said that I would stay on since this was during a time we were short managers, and I would help with closing manager duties after I got off from Job B. My hours at Job A would be cut essentially. So for a couple of months, I was working both jobs past the “last day”, and was using up my PTO/sick pay. During this time, I was still listed as full time, manager, all benefits, but my hours at Job A were cut. After awhile, I left Job B and went back to full time hours at Job A. I still had PTO/sick that wasn't used. Cut to a few days ago,…

At Job A, I submitted a notice, but said that I would stay on since this was during a time we were short managers, and I would help with closing manager duties after I got off from Job B. My hours at Job A would be cut essentially. So for a couple of months, I was working both jobs past the “last day”, and was using up my PTO/sick pay. During this time, I was still listed as full time, manager, all benefits, but my hours at Job A were cut. After awhile, I left Job B and went back to full time hours at Job A. I still had PTO/sick that wasn't used. Cut to a few days ago, and I was told that I'll be demoted to an associate level. While I understood that since they had found my replacement, they said I couldn't use the rest of my PTO/sick since I “quit”. In our systems, I am still an active employee, and have been working since my “last day”. I don't plan on quitting when demoted, but I wanted to use the last of my manager perks before the demotion, but I'm being told I can't since again, “I quit”. I was told that once someone puts in a notice, they can't use PTO, but 1, I was still working after the date, and 2, I plan to keep working. So yeah, I'm kinda lost on what to do, and someone said to talk to HR, but this is very frustrating. Any ideas on how to proceed, or is this an SOL type case?
