In its default configuration, Tor ensures that each relay in a circuit belongs to another /16 subnet (cf. Tor Path Specification [1], section "2.2. Path selection and constraints"). However, in the case of Amazon EC2, this constraint does not suffice as Amazon uses IP addresses from several different /16 subnets.
