Consult with counsel to see IF you have any grounds to file a suit for fraudulent transfer, damages, etc. He'll need to know ALL the actual facts, evidence, timing, etc. to determine what and whether you can do anything now. You're not going to succeed in that kind of legal action without experienced counsel. Feel free to contact me if serious about doing so.

You need to take all of the documents you have concerning this matter to an attorney in your area. The only way a piece of real property can be transferred into a trust AFTER the death of the trustor (if it was not transferred into the trust before the death) is by order of the Probate Court. Any transfer from your sister to anyone after death would be invalid unless your mother transferred title to herself and your sister as joint tenants BEFORE she passed away.
