I'm sorry, but I'm having trouble following the initial example.

You said that the client sent a 1-RTT packet and it got lost. In this case, it will continue to retransmit it and will eventually get an ACK, at which point the handshake will be confirmed and it will drop the keys and stop retransmitting ClientFinished. 

And as David indicates above, if the client is not sending at all, then it can just send ack-eliciting frames.
