“to appoint a new set of presidential electors in a manner that does not violate the Electors Clause and the Fourteenth Amendment, or to appoint no presidential electors at all.”

Exactly what I’ve been saying. SCOTUS cannot “overturn” the election or force the states to lose their electors. They can, and hopefully will, order the states to remedy this themselves by appointing their electors in a constitutional manner or else lose them entirely.

And if the states refuse to do this, I presume that because neither candidate will have 270 electoral votes the presidential election goes to the House and the vice-presidential election goes to the Senate ... right?
