Skyros did not kill Theseus because Skyros is an island. He was killed on Skyros due to being shoved off a cliff by Lycomedes.

Why did Skyros push Theseus off the cliff?

Skyros didn't push Theseus off the cliff. Skyros is a monster, so he forces passerby to kneel to wash his feet. When the person kneels, he kicks him off the cliff into the sea, where his flesh-eating pet turtle is waiting to eat said person. Theseus, on his way to Athens, punished Skyros for his sin by doing exactly what Skyros did to others: Theseus threw Skyros off the cliff where the turtle ate his master. Then Theseus went on his merry way.

Did Theseus die?

In the case of Theseus of the Greek Legends, Theseus did die, but later life is rather enigmatic. After his son was killed by Poseidon's bull (or Dionsyus's bull in some stories) for supposedly raping Theseus's 2nd wife, his popularity declined. Some say that after his decline of popularity he left towards Lycomedes of the island of Skyros, who pushed Theseus off a cliff to his death.
