Nothing seems rushed, i assume they were always going to end the arc after 20 episodes. We've already seen the Konoha 9 fight, so all that's left after that was Gaara's assassination. As for how everybody becomes a chunin without there being a final, i presume there just gonna make everybody who survives the sandstorm a Chūnin, since its an ordeal to survive even for a Jōnin.
