The sunrise and sunset reversal times are out of sync with the winter solstice due to the tilt of the Earth's axis. During the winter solstice, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted away from the sun, causing shorter days and longer nights. The reversal of these times happens gradually as the Earth continues its orbit around the sun, leading to earlier sunsets and later sunrises during winter.

How can it be sunrise and sunset at the same moment?

For two antipodal locations (on opposite sides of the Earth) it will be sunrise for one when it is sunset for the other.Also, on the winter solstice, areas very near the North Pole or South Pole may experience a "day" of only a few minutes length, with sunrise quickly becoming sunset and the Sun never leaving the horizon. At the Poles themselves, the period from sunrise to sunset, and sunset to sunrise, is 6 full months.

What is in the sky on winter solstice at sunrise?

That will depend upon where in the world you are and which winter solstice you mean. In the northern hemisphere, the winter solstice is in December. What you would see at sunrise will differ depending on where in the world you are. People see different constellations in different parts of the world. In the southern hemisphere, the winter solstice is in June. Again, depending on where you are in the world, you will see different things. So there is no simple answer to your question.
