I thought it was a bit odd that this happened, given that Kasich was even less viable than Rubio at the time. Was this just due to moderate Republican voters casting protest votes for their preferred candidate after their most viable candidate ceased to be viable?

Geography alone does not explain this. Compare Tennessee (Rubio 21%, Kasich 5%) and Kentucky (Rubio 16%, Kasich 14%) or Alabama (Rubio 19%, Kasich 4%) and Mississippi (Kasich 9%, Rubio 5%)
