An article listing some reasons why some are skeptical over America's claims:

And another article raising the question of whether Ayatollah Khamenei was set-up or not:

The fact is that looking at Khamenei's background, such a reckless initiative as the one he is accused of is almost too radical, the costs too high for his regime. This is why it seems at least plausible that elements within the Iranian regime could have orchestrated this to hurt him, with the goal of eventually pushing him out of power.

The key to all of this will be the evidence the US presents. If it's a boat load of incriminating evidence, or whether it's full of holes. As much experience as the Quds Force has (and how seemingly professional they are supposed to be, according to those who have interacted with them, making this incident seem highly unlikely to have been orchestrated by them), the US has even more experience. If, as skeptics believe, it seems too amateurish to have been done by QF, it also seems too amateurish to have been set-up by the US.
