Given the latest revelations, I'm going to harbor a guess:
This card is not Emrakul, but Innistrad's Moon.
His delayed reaction is either to the expansion symbol,
or rules text on the Moon card that clearly references Emrakul.
There has to be *some* reason Nahiri can fetch an artifact,
and I'm guessing this is why.

Nahiri wants Innistad to die a painful death by Eldrazi just as she saw her world die to the Eldrazi menace, and see Sorin pay in the process. I'm not sure she would want to trap Emrakul unless by trapping her it would keep her on Innistrad to destroy it. I may be wrong, but the story seems to point that direction.

Artifacts make sense, she's a stoneforger after all. What doesn't make as much sense is why she grabs a creature as well. But that's for the scary creature thing coming I guess.
its clearly an artifact frame, I wonder making the Moon a creature would be an odd twist. I guess since its been said that its colorless I agree with the perception that its Emrakul
There have been a few "moon" cards before but they have been enchantments. What they COULD do is make it "Emrakul, the Eldritch Moon" and have her flip if certain conditions are met. Maybe she becomes an enchantment during "night" and so on, instead of a planeswalker. That would be...cool, if a little powerful and disconcerting.

Nope, the card isn't double faced.
It's quite possible that thumbnail is nothing more than a promo shot. Meaning that it would be staged, and any information gleaned from it is useless.
That awkward moment when people are trying to use the exact timing of Wong's reaction to reason what the card is.
Which is hilarious, because it's a promo shot and nothing more. That card could easily be nothing more than a basic mountain for all we know, as it was very clearly scripted. I have no clue why people are over analyzing what is essentially a commercial.
^^^ Its a fun mind exercise. Carefully scripted commercials have information you can glean from them. But I'm like many, Monday 10 AM Central needs to roll around quick.

But guess what card is the card of the day (if you guys haven't checked the site.)
It's not over, no definitive proof of the poster's claim was produced. It's all their word.
