If I steal an opponents Ashcloud phoenix with an effect like Act of treason
then kill it who gains control of it when it comes back as a morph. The card doesn't specify controller or
owner's control.
At FNM last night we came to conclusion it owner got it. Ruling on gatherer didn't offer much help.
Since it doesn't specify under the owner's control, the current controller will get the morph. So yes, if you Act of Treason the Ashcloud Phoenix and it dies while under your control, you keep it.

Could you give the rule to it?
I think that, since it will go to its owner's graveyard (it can't go to another player grave, right?) it will return to its owner's control.
But of course, I don't know for sure and want a official rule to this situation to know which is correct
I somehow find it tragic when an attacking Traveling Philosopher gets blocked by another Traveling Philosopher, which normally results in two dead philosophers. Shouldn't they just sit aside and start discussing?
"This is really exciting, so much to find out about, so much to look forward to, I'm quite dizzy with anticipation . . . Or is it the wind? There really is a lot of that now, isn't there? And wow! Hey! What's this thing suddenly coming toward me very fast? Very, very fast. So big and flat and round, it needs a big wide-sounding name like . . . ow . . . ound . . . round . . . ground! That's it! That's a good name- ground! I wonder if it will be friends with me? Hello Ground!"
Curiously enough, the only thing that went through the mind of the Sprouting Phytohydra as it fell was Oh no, not again.

It doesn't care what graveyard it goes to. You control the phoenix when it dies which means that you control the triggered effect.
