I don't see any grammatical problems*, we have an adverb, badly, modifying an adjective, wrong, which is one of the jobs of an adverb. The meaning is clear enough and I agree with SilkMuse that there are degrees of wrongness. It's awkward is all.
*The purple idea waited seven times consecutively before the clock happened. Nothing grammatically wrong with this sentence; it just doesn't mean anything.
