I don't know if there's a report, as I don't think GNUCash is fully
transactional in that sense.

A somewhat more manual way is: load one of the backup files where
everything is OK and compare the "old" and "new" accounts for the
differences. If it's just a single transaction, you could even sort by
amount and look for a transaction of exactly that amount.

Other than that, I think you'd need an XML differ tool for GNUCash to do
an outright compare of the data files.
