I would suggest the acetone acts as a wetting agent, overcoming the
surface tension in ATF, allowing the oil to creep into the cracks.
Then it evaporates leaving the ATF. I would assume you should use
modern ATF for this purpose, and avoid ATF like Type F or Type A which
doesn't have friction modifiers.
