If the conversion was successful, the defense takes the penalty, moves them back and has a second chance to stop it. If it was unsuccessful, the defense declines the penalty, and awaits the kickoff.

Offensive pass interference is a loss of down, therefore the offense loses their chance to replay the down. NO Points scored. It happened in a game last year.
BTW, the crew missed it.
It being a loss of down: is this a recent rule change or is it something that's been for quite some time? I've seen it done the opposite several times.

I've never seen loss of down at any level on offensive pass interference...I have seen variations of the penalty yardage..sometimes 10 and sometimes 15 yards. If it has been changed to a loss of down, it needs to be changed back.
...And if you ain't down with that, I got 2 words for ya....
OPI is a loss of down. No points awarded, and loss of try.

so it's automaticall a loss of down and no points awarded. But will there be any penalty yardage on the following kick off?
On an extra point, you can only lose the down. Yardage is not accessed on the kickoff. Loss of down means that the team cannot replay that down, therefore, even if the offense scores, the penalty takes the points away.
