I could put the bracket back up with LARGE wood screws as I don't have any rivets that large (not real fond of the rivet design anyway). I could add 2 more LARGE screw mounts, or just redrill new holes altogether to penetrate fresh wood. I thought about using expanding drywall bolts but the foam above might not allow them to expand out very much. Toggle bolts, maybe? They would need a much larger ceiling hole but at least pull down tight over a larger area.
Ideas?

That metal bar was only attacked at the roof, those roofs are made with Styrofoam and a microwave is to heavy for that, I would look at trying to install the microwave different than the roof, try building a frame above microwave, attach frame to the side walls instead of roof.
