The ONLY thing that the Catholic Church was capable of doing was ordering Father Martin Luther to obey his solemn vows and promises. As an Augustinian Friar (often mistakenly referred to as a "monk"), he was under solemn vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience: VOWS which he has SOLEMNLY taken after years of consideration and with perfect freedom. Also, at his ordination as a priest he promised to be obedient to his Bishop and his Bishop's successors. All of which, Father Luther ignored with impunity.
So, given all of that, AND as a teacher of Theology (one wonders how in the name of God he ever learned enough to teach!) Fr. Luther could be called to account for his, well, considering his actions: Poverty, Chastity, and Obedience came to mind. And along the lines of obedience, belief in Our Blessed Saviour and His Church would have been a good starting place.
Unfortunately for all concerned, anyone who has read any of Fr. Luther's writings will immediately discern that not only did he have emotional and mental problems; but, as is very obvious from his writings, he was not praying at all. He used to get very upset about his lack of daily prayer and meditation and lock himself in his cell - the man was unbalanced, and certainly not religious. No one vowed to a religious Order, much less a priest can begin to meet their obligations to God without daily prayer and meditation.
He was ordered to return to his Friary, he was ordered to recant his heresies, not only for his own salvation, but that of people who used him as an excuse to leave their religious duties. When one sees the thousands of individuals who threw away their salvation because of Fr. Luther; not to mention the generations who had no chance to access the sacraments because of him, well, one must remember him in your prayers for his judgment before God.
The Catholic Church has never issued rewards for anybody. The only thing that the Catholic Church did to Martin Luther was to formalize his excommunication, see it at the link below:

True.
A:Martin Luther initially sought to work within the Catholic Church to reform the use of indulgences.

The Catholic Church never abducted little girls and, no, this was not a complaint of Martin Luther.
I hardly think the Catholic Church would proclaim him as a saint since the Church considers him to be a heretic.
.Catholic AnswerThere was never a "war" with Martin Luther and the Church, the question is not valid.
The movement which separated from the Catholic Church is known as 'the Protestant Reformation.' It was started by Martin Luther.
