JEE Math Practice Question

Let $z=\frac{-1+\sqrt{3} i}{2}$, where $i=\sqrt{-1}$, and $r, s \in\{1,2,3\}$. Let $P=\left[\begin{array}{cc}(-z)^{r} & z^{2 s} \\ z^{2 s} & z^{r}\end{array}\right]$ and $I$ be the identity matrix of order 2 . Then what is the total number of ordered pairs $(r, s)$ for which $P^{2}=-I$?
