Don't know about other assns, but in ASA only the defense may appeal BOO. (7.2.C.Effect)

I don't do NCAA, but I think that if the coach discovered someone batting out of order during an AB, the correct batter could step in and assume the ball and strike count.
I don't believe the BOO is actually a done-deal until the improper batter completes his/her turn at bat.
