The opposing manager would have to come out to the ump and complain about the missed base. If he does not, then the runner may stay on second.

If the manager does complain, the ump would then order the batter back to first to touch it, and then the runner would be entitled to advance to second due to the overthrow and deadball. The deadball aspect renders an appeal play at first, moot.
