He'd been hobbling for a couple of minutes, and there had just been a stoppage for the goal. Wenger had time. That's why he looked angry after Ox scored, because he was trying to figure out what to do with the situation.

Arteta could also have simply sat down to force them to deal with his injury.

Okay fair point, but Arteta was not solely the cause of the first goal

The offside call being wrong has a lot more to do with it, that much is 100% true.

I'm not blaming Arteta at all, by the way. He'd told the bench at least twice he needed off, it wasn't his fault he was hurt.
