The FIA has given Andretti Formula Racing the green light to join the Formula 1 grid, subject to it reaching a commercial agreement with FOM.

The teams have no say (at least formally, in practice they could boycott the races or even threat again to create their breakaway series). FIA only can add them to the entrants list. Everything else is FOM.

TV rights? FOM. Contracts with the circuits? FOM. Contracts with DHL? FOM. Contracts with Pirelli? FOM.

So if FOM said so, Andretti wouldn't be able to ship their cars, enter the circuits or even have tires.
