AaronC141 I agree about the fact that Ishida is using the parallelisms in an intelligent way. He is using it to add meanings, but isn't letting the parallelisms suffocating the plot. If everything was a parallelism then the story would become predictable and boring.

About this theory I don't think it would happen. Killing Touka just for making a parallelism with Yomo's story would just reduce her role too much. She has been given a lot of building up and is one of the most important characters in the series. She is the manager of :re and is a character around with many others gravitate: Haise, Ayato, Hinami, Yoriko. She is important for the story of all these chareacters. She isn't a simple copy of her mother.

Ishida can do the parallelism between her and Hikari in different ways. Look at Hinami and Ryouko: they were both in a desperate situation around the same time in the story, but while Kaneki wasn't able to do anything to help the mother he was able to successfully save the daughter for now.

Still, I liked the idea of Yomo saving Ayato during a pinch. I think that may happen someway.
