You may be right but you need to analyze more lines to be sure about it

3.Qxa5 is only one option and white has some alternatives.

When I go back with Yace it says 3.Qd7 -1.04/12,-0.99/13
2.Qc7 is also not obviously forced move and yace after going back says
2.Qc6 -0.66/12

I do not claim that 1.Qc4 is the best move but I doubt if you really proved that
it is losing.
