It's 4th down and the offense throws a td pass but the wr is called for pass interference. The ref said loss of down and gave the ball to the defense. Is that correct? I thought if the defense accepted the penalty it would still be 4th down.

Offensive pass interference is 15 plus loss of down. Sounds like it was properly enforced.

Where in the rule book can I find it so I can win a bet.

2-14-3 says:

A free-kick formation is a formation used for a free-kick down.

Following the ready-for-play for a free-kick down and until the ball is kicked:

a. All R players must be behind their free-kick line.

b. All K players, other than the kicker and holder, must be behind their freekick

line.
