If that does not work - have a printout of your next segment - so they can manually add it. Then you may want to double check in Toronto at the transfer desk that they have your tag numbers and if not - to manually enter them.
If it were AC to TAM, that would be correct. But in the opposite direction, it appears rto be against LATAM policy.
OP should look at Avianca Brazil. Which is Star Alliance.
