One more reason, why the liver shifts from gluconeogenesis to ketone body production is because the Krebs cycle is slowed down, as the intermediates of Krebs cycle are the substrates of gluconeogenesis, they get used up and citric acid cycle slows down considerably.
So remaining acetyl coA with nowhere to go turn to ketone body synthesis.

Awesome video! Takes me back to my school days in the '90s. I wish they knew/taught then what we've learned since.
