If flashrom says "VERIFIED", it's job is done.

You should talk to libreboot folks then. The image might be incompatible
with your hardware or maybe you did something wrong when preparing the
image.

Well, one idea I have left: You could return to the vendor BIOS, verify
that everything works and then flash libreboot only without disabling
the ME. For this you should add these options to your flashrom command:
  --ifd -i bios
This way, it would only flash the BIOS part.
