I had this problem tweeting my blog posts with the correct image. In fact, many of my blog posts turned out with the same image on Twitter.
I tried to adjust the social settings in the All in One SEO Pack but it didn't help this time.
I highlighted this time because it usually works.

Proposed Solution is to go to the Twitter Card Validator and key in the URL of the blog post you want to tweet.
The website is at : https://cards-dev.twitter.com/validator
After you key in the url of your blog post, you can preview card and what I discovered is that your desired image is shown.
This is where the "magic" starts. After you validate your blog post using the above link, go back to your Twitter account and refresh it. You will see your earlier tweet this time, with the correct desired image.
There has to be a technical reason for this but I'm really unable to explain it. Since I stumbled across this, I wanted to share and hopefully it helps someone out there if you're facing the same issue.
