(Half) Inning ended with 3rd out. The only thing to recognize is appeal(s) if made. Ball remains live as it must for any potential appeal to occur. Act of runner returning to touch missed base means nothing after inning has ended (as any runner touching home after 3rd out means nothing). Sounds like runner should have either touched home initially or returned to touch it prior to 3rd out occurring. I see no major question here.
Just my opinion,
