I think what happens is a simple precipitation. Calcium acetate isn't soluble in ethanol, and hence crashes out of solution when ethanol is added to a saturated solution of calcium acetate.
The precipitation is quick, leading to small strands of solid Ca(OAc)2, forming a solid gel. A gel consists of a continuous open network and a solvent. The network can be either solid or soluble in the solvent.
