BB. Immediately notify the parties of the dishonored check and work to have the funds replaced as required by the contract✓ Correct
CC. Terminate the contract automatically
DD. File a police report only

Explanation

When an earnest money check is dishonored (returned for non-sufficient funds), the broker must promptly notify both the buyer and seller. The buyer is typically required to replace the funds promptly per the contract.
