Can orders be rescinded?

I've not actually run into this situation, but I'm a "contingency planner" by nature and tend to brainstorm about possible scenarios I might encounter both in games and real life. I guess living most of my life in a hurricane prone area instilled this "quality" in me.

Anyway, let's say I have orders to patrol a given area that's pretty far from my home port, and let's say that along the way I encounter enough enemy shipping that I expend all of my torps before reaching my designated patrol area. If I call in a situation report with 0 torps left, will I be instructed to continue to my patrol area, or will that order be canceled and replaced with an RTB order?
