I guess it's possible. I have not noticed any strange behavior myself (or at least, nothing strange enough it's not explained by stuff we already know about like different cabin upgrades).
I am not sure. At this point - AA isn’t quite transparent about these kind of thing.

Regarding being skipped I created a thread last month when I noticed on a short PIT-CLT flight they cleared someone way down the list skipping many others on the list and some have observed similar situations the poster was discussing about.

Skipped on Upgrade List?
