Yea you just ruined your entire brake system. The Trans fluid swells all rubber components aND pretry much ruins it. Proper fix is a new master cylinder, all new hoses, new calipers/wheel cylinders, new combination valve and new whatever abs components are in line. the only things reused are the steel brake lines and they are thoroughly flushed with compressed air and cleaner and then more compressed air. Never substitute fluids. Your car is going to have to be towed into a shop. Im an ASE certified mechanic

Oops! That is going to be expensive. Don't short cut the repairs as your life could depend on it.
