There are no untouchables, however, this incident will be looked at in the context of all of Ambi's behavior, which means that it is unlikely that we will dump all over someone who generally acts in a responsible way. It is possible for a Wikipedia user to destroy their reputation by repeatedly trading on it in an inappropriate way, but it takes a series of incidents.
As to a channel of redress, begin with Ambi. As to whether further steps are appropriate, use common sense. Are we dealing with an important problem or an isolated incident?

I'd like to know what my options are after Ambi called me a jerk:

Now, before I make a fool of myself making an inappropiate fuss on the wiki, maybe someone could tell me if there are any proper channels of redress for this kind of thing, whether or not Ambi is 'untouchable' and therefore it's not worth me defending myself.
Thanks in advance,
