Am I going to get points for this?

I’ve been driving for 2 months. Passed my test a few months ago. I made a mistake today.
So there was a queue of traffic. And I’m coming up to green lights. I’ve passed the white line but ended up having to stop on the crossing for a good ten seconds. On my right, the walking sign was red (so it was still a green light). And then I moved off but didn’t have time to quickly check it again.
My question is - if someone was to stop on the crossing when it’s still a green traffic light….and then it was to turn red….would you get a fine/points?

Unlikely but please do think of the pedestrians :/
