Sound and oil temp issues strongly indicate bearing failure secondary to oil starvation.
I am very curious as to why oil starvation occured--where did it go?
Check your filter for puncture, etc.
Also check tail pipes for absurd soot.
How many miles on this oil fill?
You have already messed up by adding oil, driving, etc. Next time call dealer ASAP when something goes awry. However, it sounds like this is honestly nothing you did, and a good dealership should take care of you.
Good luck, and if possible, please provide us with a failure analysis. Cars do not all of a sudden start using oil without cause.
