Catcher then goes to 3B and appeals to umpire that runner left too early which is upheld. Is one of the runners on originally on 1B or 2B (now in dugout) automatically called out for leaving baseline or does catcher have to tag them?

Nonsense.
In a MLB game the catcher would have thrown inmnediately - it's done routinely at that level.
No way in hades the other runners would have made it to the dugout.
