Excess IRA Contribution Issue - Do I Need to Amend 2023 Tax Return?

I received a 1099-R from my IRA brokerage for 2024 as I contributed to my IRA last year. The contribution was made in 2024, but it was a catch-up contribution for 2023. What I didn't realize before making the contribution was that I was unable to contribute to my IRA as I didn't work for the entirety of 2023 and this would be considered an excess contribution. I called my brokerage to reverse the transaction and filed my 2023 return without reporting that I contributed to my IRA since I reversed it. When I entered the 1099-R into TurboTax for this year's return, a message appeared that I may need to amend my 2023 tax return. Since I did not report the IRA deduction for 2023, is this still necessary?
