Again, a runner with NO liability to be put out is not forced to touch the next base to validate a run scoring.
In this case when the runner from third touches home before or after the batter/runner touches first the game is over. There is nothing to appeal.

IF they actually touch the base, they have no liability to be put out. But, if they don't touch the base, they can be appealed out and the out is a force out if they were forced to advance because the batter became a batter-runner.
