It wasn't looked at, because no one paid a bounty for it. And they stated as reason for that, that Firefox simply didn't have any major architectural changes since the last pwn2own, i.e. they probably wouldn't find anything new.
If they had expected to find many vulnerabilities, then it would make more sense to target it, as the whole point of these events is to find vulnerabilities, so that they can be fixed.

And the poster you replied to was right, at the time of PWN2OWN 2016 Firefox was the only browser without a working sandbox. It would have been very easy to compromise it.
