If, as you say, "He pretty much stood up and then threw the ball sideways to the back", it sounds like an illegal snap. If his rising up and throwing the ball was ,"a quick and continuous backward motion of the ball" then it sounds like a legal snap.
Snapping the ball is a basic concept that has existed since the game was invented. Allowing one team to deviate from the standard gives that team an unearned advantage, which automatically provides the opponent with an unearned disadvantage.
You might also consider that allowing a long snapper to "cock" the ball forward before snapping it, also provides an unearned advantage to the snapping team.
