You absolutely can't downgrade from BOE1 or later.
If the issue was only that you were downgrading from BOD5 or earlier and simply flashed the wrong kernel, flashing the correct kernel will allow you to boot.
If the issue was that you had BOE1 or later and tried to flash kitkat, you need to try using Odin to flash a Lollipop recovery image.
