I say:

I think you are missing the clue here.  It says that Tom is still blurry, meaning that he hadn't taken all of Ginny's life energy from her yet.  This also means that Tom was not yet fully real, he was still just a memory, a shadow of the past and that is why Harry's scar did not hurt.  If Ginny had died and Tom had become fully realized then I'm sure Harry's scar would have been doing it's usual sommersults.
