am i going to be disqualified

After an invigilator had told me to go outside when the exam had finished to ask another teacher for help with how to save my work on a laptop. When I stepped outside and asked the teacher for help. there was another teacher who was talking next to her and suddenly asked me why I was outside, I told her that I got permission to go outside to speak to the teacher she was speaking to, but she just kept talking over me and said it was a disqualification and told me to get back in. I told the invigilator about it and he told me to stay here while he went to speak to her, after that the problem was solved but I'm still very worried about whether or not I will get disqualified, someone please help me

The invigilator is the person who would report you to the exam board, if they said you are fine and they’ll speak to them then you are fine. Try not to think too much into it, good luck on your GCSEs and try not to let it interfere with your flow too much.

You're definitely okay if the invigilator says you are. That teacher was probably just trying to scare you.
