One question, do you really feel car pushing or did you find out this issue by looking at data from OBD?
I ask you this because a throttle position different from 0 doesn't necessarily means that the car is accelerating. It can be done for different reasons, e.g. throttle partially open but no fuel injection for reducing engine brake or to have a faster pedal response if you change your mind and press the gas pedal again.

Honestly when I lift off the gas or brake hard but don't press the clutch pedal, I don't feel any autonomous acceleration by the engine. Instead if I brake hard and immediately press the clutch pedal I can see engine rpms stop for 1 second at 2500/3000 rpms like the engine is accelerating.
