148. The fact that an RA is offered and accepted doesn't make it permanent.

There have been many cases where religious accommodations were offered to people, only to be rescinded when the employer later found a greater than expected impact on their business. It is entirely possible that the other employees complaint simply alerted the employer to a labor inequity that the employer was previously unaware of, which led to the accommodation being rescinded. There's nothing illegal about rescinding an RA.

It's also important to remember that it's discriminatory for employers to require other employees to perform a greater amount of labor to accommodate one employees religion, because in that case you're effectively penalizing the other employees for NOT belonging to that religion (which, according to the EEOC, ALSO qualifies as religious discrimination). When making religious accommodations, employers have to do it in a way that results in an equitable workplace for ALL employees of ALL faiths and nonfaiths. If the other employees complaint resulted in the realization that the attempt at creating an RA resulted in a workload imbalance based solely on the faith of one employee, the employer would have been legally required to rectify the situation.
