In your online I-765, toggle the Additional Information menu item on the left-hand side, then in the Section, Page, and Question dropdown menus, select, respectively: Getting Started, Reason for applying, Have you previously filed Form I-765? You will then enter your explanation in the Additional Information textbox that appears.
2. To upload a scan of your original Denial Notice, submit your completed application first after having filled out everything else, including the Additional Information section pertaining to your Denial Notice as directed above. Afterwards, log in to your myUSCIS account, find this application you've just submitted, then upload it as Unsolicited Evidence.
