So to summarise
So the OP paid the fare on the day. Either by part paying the penalty fare to the amount of the actual fare or seperately to the penalty fare.
Northern accepted he was not dishonest by issuing the penalty fare in the first place, and this is even referred to in posts above. They didn't withdraw it, they rejected his appeal.
A summons maybe on the way based on an email sent to the OP. For any criminal prosecution (barred or otherwise ) the fare due is nil (the penalty fare value cannot come in) because a ticket was purchased before leaving Leeds Station.
To the OP, how did the email mentioning the summons come about. Is it your appeal rejection that mentions it? Were you informed if you don't pay admin fees you will be prosexuted?. Can you post what the email says and the timeline of correspondence.
