I think sponsorship stays with him, even if his character pauses. It's only when the character leaves the realm that the army transfers to the ruler. And, if there is no ruler, it transfers to the general, and if there is no general, it transfers to the judge, and if there is no judge, it transfers to the banker.

As I have already stated quite clearly:

The army presently has no sponsor.

There is definitely a bug of some sort going on here.

not disputing that; merely explaining what should happen when the sponsor dies/emigrates/deletes/switches realms.

Seeing as the self-dissolution didn't occur, I've had to create a separate army with a new name to circumvent this bug. Shame that means that the history of the Column, the realm's oldest army, is now smoke.

.... if you wait long enough for the fix, i would guess the ruler will become the sponsor at some point.

then you can flip everything back.

I can always rename the new army once that happens either way.
