My guess would be one of the vacuum lines on the hardpipe is loose, or as in my case the bung the hose attaches to was cracked and hard to see except when looking for it. Replacement of the hardpipe fixed the idle creep issue I had, similar to what you ask about.
Next up would be corrosion issues as mentioned, I've had these problems come on after other service as correct voltage/actuation or a non-operating system coming back on acts like a continuation of your issue...and often is as systems will "back down" when issues occur. IACV connectors, injector connectors, CTS, and PTU harness are main culprits and the CAS connector can be an issue sometimes as well. I would check all connectors listed as well as the TPS check, and also check the butterflys where you propped them open for cleaning to see if one was perhaps moved slightly, as happened to me once. The butterfly MUST seal the opening correctly or airflow is changed, possibly your higher idle culprit as well.
So, have fun with this all and hopefully you find your issue!
