If he's being "forced" to 3B, it's still a force. He abandoned the base to return, and the force out is still applicable.

Try this on.... same sitch. When ball drops, can R2 just run straight to home plate since he already touched 3B? He'd still be touching the bases in order...

Of course he can't. Once the base is abandoned to return, the first touch never happened.
