Answering my own question: it turned out to be very simple...

tell myAd
  place myFile place point {0, 0}
end tell

And this raises another question, although it might not be directly related to scripting:
Is it possible to remove the placed file again without removing the rectangle also ?
The rectangle was made before the file was placed, but by doing so it seems to replace the rectangle (but retaining its size, it seems).
