The boycott didn't backfire, but just ignored. Backfiring would indicate that people watched it just to spite the protesters. I had no idea there was a protest at all until reading your post saying that there was a protest for it.
This. Unfortunately, the feeble-minded don't really understand the meaning of "backfired" so any time something is success in spite of a protest, they tend to credit the protest. In reality, most people had no fucking clue a boycott was happening. Certainly the first I've heard of it.
