Before we begin, if someone reaches out to you apologizing for accidentally reporting you and giving you steps to fix that, it is a common scam that we are aware of. All reports are reviewed by a human, so if someone actually accidentally reported you, the report would likely be rejected. If someone like that reaches out to you, or you think someone is pretending to be [tumblr] Staff, please report it to us immediately and block them. Outside of official [tumblr] accounts and our support email, Staff will never message you, reply to your messages, or notify you about changes to your account. (source)

Fortunately, I don't trust anyone online, so instead of using the help they suggested (a Discord link), I searched for Tumblr help and contacted them instead. Always ALWAYS search for the website's real help centre first.

Here are screenshots from the interaction for awareness:

and from support:

If someone says they reported your account by mistake and then says you need to contact a "support" blog/agent or email, requests personal information, or to go to another platform (like Discord), to email anything that's not @tumblr.com, asks for payment or to purchase a product, urges you to change your login credentials, or anything similar, please do not comply — report the user (cog wheel > Mark as spam) and avoid further interaction.
