It would be a copyright issue, so I'm not sure anybody but Ancho could legally report it, unfortunately. Its not breaking Steam TOS near as I can tell, so that's about as far as we can get. I guess someone could try emailing Steam or Gabe directly about the issue, but honestly it would probably just go ignored if a legitimate copyright complaint isn't filed.

It's the catch-22: No one thinks this is Ancho because he can't be reached and hasn't been seen but he can't be notified because he can't be reached and hasn't been seen.

Unfortunately, he never left a means to reach out to him with. Just a dead twitter account. He quite literally fell of the face of the earth (digitally speaking anyway). Maybe, like, a PI or some shit could find his true identity and contact him that way, but outside of that there's not a whole lot of things that can be done.

I still mourn the loss of this game.
Such great game, with such good pacing.
It's was wonderful.
So sad it didn't get the support it needed.

I never really post on forums but felt the need on this. I also believe this isn't Ancho and it kind of tilts me.

I'm not an expert, but I believe this would be considered a copyright issue, which Ancho himself would have to respond to. Honestly, you could be putting your steam account at risk for false reporting if you try and report it yourself. You could also be putting yourself at legal risk, as making false copyright claims(copyfraud) is illegal. Unfortunately, all any of us can really do is wait and see how all of this pans out. Best case scenario, Ancho becomes aware of the situation and comes out of hiding to fix this mess.

There is another possibility. Ancho may have sold the game and rights. That doesn't mean someone is going to finish it, just try to profit off the work already done.
I'm not suggesting this is the case, just offering up another possibility. It irks me just as much seeing someone else other than Ancho making money off this game. I hope it's legal and if not, I hope the perpetrator is caught.

I think it's pretty certain that the game was stolen and put on Steam by someone else at this point, I remember looking at the discussion hub a few weeks ago and there were a few threads asking about season 2, why only season 1 was released, and also why there was no remastered art, etc.
I just looked now, and the hub is completely empty, all the threads have been deleted like they used to do in the AOA Academy hub. Having reported it didn't had any consequences, but I expected that too.
Additionally, I found that this one has also appeared in the store,
I tried to contact them with the form on their websites to get information on this, in case it was really them or not, but I haven't gotten a response yet.

I'm guessing this is actually a pretty widespread problem on Steam if you know where to look. Porn game devs would be a particularly easy target for this kind of thing.
