I assumed the logic was "I invited her to my get-together, so clearly I didn't know she was dead and had no lingering bad feelings toward her."

It’s simpler than that, the boxes were already made before the email and murder. It would have been harder and more suspicious to try to stop her delivery.

Was it ever stated that the boxes were already being delivered at the time of her murder? That doesn't seem likely.

Helen said she was at the house cleaning up just 1-2 days after Andi’s death when the box was delivered. Miles said that his “puzzle guy” was barely able to make the five boxes in time for delivery, implying a tight turnaround, and it’s obvious from seeing the boxes that they couldn’t have been made and delivered in just a few days. I don’t think it needs to be stated that the delivery was already in motion when Andi sent the email.

Yup, that part I get. But it seemed like the reason for inviting everyone else was to keep pressing the leverage he had on them, but he no longer had that with Andi, so I don’t quite get it. Was it just to rub it in her face?

I think he thought eventually she’d come back to the group? He never wanted her to leave the company, and he’s self centered enough to believe that he hadn’t burned all bridges the legal stuff. He’s very good at controlling and manipulating the others, so it’s easy to see why he might think he could do the same to Andi again eventually. The email showing she had leverage changed the situation.
