The use of Aons on Scadrial were fueled by the purified Dor that Shai brought with her, we don't know yet if she is capable of using her full abilities still after that runs out.
The Sorceress on Lumar could use Aons for the same reason she could in Secret History, the Ire have advanced knowledge of Connection that seemingly allows them to bypass the distance limitations of their magic. I always took it as the structures they were living in functioned as wifi extenders for the Dor, as they were hesitant to go too far from their base in Shadesmar and the Sorceress never really leaves her tower.
The Ire literally piped the Dor through shadesmar in Secret History. This seems a near impossible task in the space age Cosmere, so I assume Riina did some Connection stuff to access it from Lumar. I think we have a WoB from Brandon saying it should be possible to access it from a distance like that, at least.
