I thought other would chime in but the car is probably fine. Under acceleration in a corner the front end is light causing an under steer. If you push in the clutch to shift, the car attitude shifts adding weight back to the front giving forward bite. The car start to have full grip again, turning sharper, you unwind the wheel a little. At that point leaving out the clutch, it can balances the car returning some under steer but still not as bad as accelerating in the lower gear. The way you hit the gas at that point can do a number of things several of which are not good depending on your driving ability and tires and radius of the turn.

If your pushing your tires the rear will brake loose and come around. Or the front will start to slip and as you turn to catch up and leave off the gas the front will bit hard and the rear will come around fast.
