Why do almost all of the English translations, even those that were produced by large committees of expert Greek Scholars who translated from the manuscripts (and not from previous translations) translate it as
rebellion or
apostacy?
That is the Elephant in the room. Call me a skeptic but I doubt that you know Koine Greek. Am I right?
Therefore you are trying to quote a source or rephrase a source. You should cite your source. I have a feeling that they don't know Koine Greek either. I don't know the rules of Koine Greek so I rely on the experts that do and some of the best in the world serve on these committees to translate these English translations such as the ESV, NIV, CSB, from the original manuscripts in extant and understand all the rules of syntax and they don't agree with what you are proposing. So... there is that.
