Hello,
it seems that this bug was not fixed even in Luatex 1.13.2.
\scantokens is logged correctly but \scatextokens not.

and run luatex test.
Then the ( and ) are logged curiously: ( ( ... )) Why all closing ))
are logged after end command?
If we change \scantextokens to \scantokens, then ( and ) behaves more
logical in log file and in the terminal: ( ) ( ).

confirmed, we will see if we can fix it for the upcoming texlive.
