Not enough info to say for sure.
Maybe try taking some pictures and post them.
If the torsion bars (or one) is still somehow in place, be very careful as it's like a strung bow. But unless I'm missing something, when the hitch was pulled out of the receiver, that should have released the tension on the torsion bars but again, it's hard to tell what's happening based on the description.
I'm thinking the same about the torsion bar! It would simply push the shank up, jamming the whole thing! Imagine a 2000lb spring bar pushing up on the hitch with no counterweight!
