It is impossible to e-file twice. When one tax return has been accepted, all other attempts to e-file again will be rejected.

This is not true. You can file two times. The software should stop you, but it still will go thru. Its unfortunate but it is a thing. Has anyone found a solution to the issue? That should be the response here. Yes speaking from experience.

The program will not stop you from trying to file 2 1040 returns but the IRS will ... so did you file one 1040 and one amended 1040X return ? Were they both accepted for processing by the IRS ? If so you cannot stop either return. If you need to make changes then you must wait for the original return AND the amended return to be fully processed before you can file yet another amended return.
