Coach Steven Reid was also sent off following the full-time whistle after venting his frustrations.
Forest were unhappy at Tierney after he halted play in stoppage time during an attack when Ibrahim Konate went down with an apparent head injury.
However, he quickly recovered and play restarted with a drop-ball at the feet of Liverpool goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, despite Forest having been in possession of the ball.
Forest had already been left outraged by the amount of time added on, with Liverpool going on to steal a winner nine minutes into stoppage time.

The result leaves Forest just three points above the Premier League relegation zone.
Against a depleted Liverpool side, the hosts thought they'd done enough to seal a point only to see Nunez snatch that away with a late header.
Nuno Espirito Santo's side restricted the Reds to just two shots on target, but Jurgen Klopp's men found a way.
This result is huge in the context of the title race, with Liverpool now four points clear at the top of the Premier League table.

He said: "I will not comment on the referee. We played a very good game against a very good team, fantastic players and manager and we limited them.
"They had chances, we had chances, it was a good game of football. We had clear chances to do better, to improve. We should have been more clinical.
"I'm proud of the boys because they worked very hard. They combined, they helped each other, they defend the box, they did two-on-ones - they did everything. But we can improve."
Mark Clattenburg, recently appointed as referee analyst for Forest, said: "The owner is quite upset because they fought. He has invested a lot of money in the football club and he wants to see results. He feels another decision has gone against the football club. Quite rightly, he’s upset."
Meanwhile, Liverpool boss Klopp insisted he saw nothing wrong with Nunez's winner or the actions of the officials.

Earlier in the game, had Tierney halted a Liverpool attack after Forest skipper Ryan Yates was felled by Harvey Elliott's shot and play resumed with home goalkeeper Matz Sels taking possession.
Klopp said: "It happened exactly the same in the first half didn't it? Exactly the same, just the other way round.
"I accepted it would happen like that because it happened in the first half. If it didn't happen in the first half, I would have asked the question as well.
"I would assume that's the rule, I don't know. But because it happened twice and got handled exactly the same, I don't really see their reasons for a discussion."
