If engine is not misfiring, check motor mounts.

Its not the mounts, but when i turn on the car it doesn't shake or anything, but once its warm the car in park starts to shake little bit, when i shift it to reverse or drive the rpm goes below the 1 rapidly and is having trouble staying on. I put on neutral press the gas and it shakes even worse. When i drove it the last time i was heading home and if i was going faster than 60 one little tap on the gas it shakes really bad.

Well I would suspect convertor, but you say it is OK, and if engine is not missing and mounts are good, then it has to be transmission related.

Possible TCC solenoid sticking.
