You are asking for a lot to go right, particularly if you have bags. If it was a schedule change that crunched the connection, it may be worth trying to request a free change. That said, I didn't realize they were allowed to sell that routing on one ticket, guess I learn new things here all the time.

Based on that, I read it as one ticket into YYZ, one ticket out in the same PNR

Understood, doesn't matter if you miss the last connection of the night in terms of getting there that day, only saves a fight about getting rebooked. In order to avoid the tight connection, my advice was to utilize the fact there was a schedule change to get a more manageable connection. Depending how it was ticketed, you never know if perhaps a SFO-NYC direct might be possible.

Question is what is the flight number of the SFO-SIN segment. This determines which carrier published the fare.
If SFO-SIN is a AC flight number, then SFO-NYC nonstop would practically be impossible to be booked on unless it is day of departure IRROPS because AC can’t book SIN-SFO-NYC with AC flight number.
If the fare is UA, then maybe a schedule change can be rebooked as SIN-SFO-NYC.

I’m almost 100% certain the ticket is ticketed as NYC-YTO, YTO-SIN round trip, and YTO-NYC.
