It isn't going to engage any gears if there isn't any fluid. Once you remove the pan and check for internal damage you will know more. Going into park is a mechanical function. All other gears are engaged with hydraulic pressure hence your situation. Continuing to run the car with a drained transmission is only making things worse, so stop that.
