I'm talking about the timeline in which Zamasu switched bodies with Goku and killed Goku. Was that timeline erased when Beerus killed Present Zamasu? Or does it still exist? If so, what happened there? Did the others resurrect Goku and his family and move on with their lives? Were the other sagas the same as in the main timeline?
What happened in Zamasu's timeline?

Assuming it wasn't erased (which it shouldn't be, Beerus' Hakai erasing an entire timeline is bullllllshit), you could argue they resurrected Goku, Chi-Chi and Goten with the Namekian Dragon Balls and then wished Goku's body back to his original Saiyan body using the Super Dragon Balls or something. Since there's no longer a Zamasu in that timeline, the Future Trunks arc doesn't take place and Zeno just decides to erase the low tier universes at the time of when the ToP would've taken place (manga-wise), while without Freeza being resurrected through the ToP, Broly isn't ever discovered and the heroes just get slaughtered by Moro anime-wise (assuming that the anime will get around to animating the Moro/Granolah arcs eventually).
If assuming Merus still steps in and trains Goku to achieve Ultra Instinct regardless and they are victorious against Moro, Goku's lead over Vegeta would become so massive that he'd never be able to keep up, and they're both killed by Granolah when MUI Goku is defeated and Vegeta presumably doesn't have his SSJBE transformation, much less Ultra Ego.

But Goku's original body is now in another timeline.
Why doesn't the TOP take place?

The Super DBs can grant any wish, and that hasn't been contradicted. If it can restore people whose souls have been erased, just changing Goku's body back to its original makeup shouldn't be impossible.
Because the only reason it took place was because there were two Zenos. In Future Trunks' timeline which is 17 years later, there was no ToP and the universes hadn't been erased yet which negates the necessity for a ToP. The only reason Zeno decided to host it and go with that whole idea was due to the events that were triggered by the timeline changes of the last arc.
Zeno had promised Goku he would hold this tournament long before the second Zeno appeared.

Which occurred only a few months after the Zamasu saga in the main timeline. Yet, it clearly hadn't taken place a year later (when Black stole Goku's body in this timeline). So, the ToP clearly doesn't occur as it does in the main timeline without the Zamasu events.

Speaking of that, isn't this version of Goku a year ahead of main timeline Goku? Wouldn't that mean the ToP had already happened and the body Zamasu stole should be much stronger and capable of Ultra Instict?

I don't think Zeno decided to wipe out any universes without the Zamasu arc happening, so he never went through the ToP and never unlocked CSSJB (manga-wise) or any form of UI.

It makes sense. Time travel is established to drastically alter events in this story.

I wonder how they stopped Moro in this timeline though, since Cranberry released him in less than a year after the Zamasu arc. Unless time travel changed that event too, so it didn't happen as early as it did in the main timeline.
