What evidence do you have for it not being a doomed timeline, exactly?

It didn’t actually happen.
There was a time when Cronus thought for a moment that he found Problem Sleuth, Ace Dick, and Pickle Inspector, right? But they were just carapacians?
Yes, that happened in Openbound Part 2
Would it be possible for someone to force their way into a session from the planet, or would the game have accounted for that already?

They could use the teleporters in the Frog Temple, but if a session is in progress all indigenous life on the players’ planet should be dead
if a time player comes from a doomed timeline, are they automatically doomed? What happens if the version from the alpha timeline died, but a doomed version came in? Sorry if this doesn't make sense

Yes they’re still doomed even in the scenario you suggest
A time player isn't necessary for a doomed timeline to be created. There was a doomed timeline created where Terezi didn't kill Vriska, and Vriska went to confront Jack, with the alpha timeline still being the one where Terezi did kill Vriska, with no intervention from a time player.

That wasn’t a doomed timeline, that was a possible timeline that would have ended with everyone being doomed, completely different thing.
how could vriska time travel when doing all of the things she did in the post-scratch session?

She had Aradia’s Temporal Music boxes
wait but wouldn't it be possible to use the lotus pod to go back in time to earth via the reckoning before the session and create/fix a doomed timeline even without a time player? I think it would be.

Skaian Defense Portal, just like the other exiles
plot hole related: jack english was created when gamzee sent lil cal to him in prison, so why did he exist post-retcon where gamzee had been in the fridge the whole time?
We can assume that Vriska did it, because Vriska did all of Gamz’s other stuff and has a history of wanting to create villians
