'Nothingness' fucks up how time works. A truly empty region or universe experiences wonky time flow. And a consequence is it fucks up how probability works (in regards to extremely unlikely reactions that might 'temporarily' birth another universe).
IOW, you wouldn't have to wait for something to happen. Of course, your presence would inhibit the process, and then there would be a bit of a wait while you yourself dissipated to nothingness.
Bring a good long book to read while you wait . . .
The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Matter and Antimatter don't annihilate to nothing. I don't therefore understand your comparison...

Big Bang was 'only' 13.7 billion years ago. For the current universe to mostly dissipate might take 10^100 years.
So, do you wonder what was going on 10^100 years ago in our neck of the woods ??
Granted, it's most likely eternally (heh, heh) unknowable . . . but if there's at least a plausible predicted future that far into the future, what's wrong with running the numbers backwards instead ??

They don't? I'm no physicist, and maybe I'm misunderstanding the process. What I'm talking about is discussed in Kraus' s A Universe From Nothing, If I'm not mistaken.
Verbatim from the mouth of Jesus (retranslated from a retranslation of a copy of a copy):
"Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you too will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. How can you see your brother's head up his ass when your own vision is darkened by your head being even further up your ass? How can you say to your brother, 'Get your head out of your ass,' when all the time your head is up your own ass? You hypocrite! First take your head out of your own ass, and then you will see clearly who has his head up his ass and who doesn't." Matthew 7:1-5 (also Luke 6: 41-42)

No. For example, an Electron and its antiparticle, a Positron, each have, via their mass, a rest energy of 511 keV. If they meet, they annihilate and the result of this process is two photons with 511 keV each. Energy is not lost.
When Protons and Antiprotons, Neutrons and Antineutrons meet as would be the case with proper Antimatter, much of their rest energy goes into Neutrinos as well, not just photons. This is discussed by the CERN website they created in the wake of the Dan Brown movie "Angels and Demons."

Had a bit of a panic attack - I initially read that as 10^10 years.
phew.

Photons have zero values for most conserved traits, though (charge, mass, etc.). When they're talking about "nothing," in this sense, I get the idea that they mean something that is physically close to nothing, maybe with a few photons whizzing around in it or something. Again, I'm a laymen, not a sophisticated physicist, and I've only been exposed to summaries of this idea.
