The only thing I can figure is the person who would've brought it in was already all-in on the ante, so it passed to the person to the left. I'm not familiar with the rule, but it's the only thing that makes sense here.

I doubt it. It wouldn't have timed out unless it was waiting for that player to act anyway. I'd check the PokerStars site for tournament rules. I have to think it would be covered there somewhere.
