I don't know because I'm using an old version. The great thing about Emacs
is that if you can't customize it using variables, you can always go to
the source.

Since my version is old I'm just guessing.

I see that it runs the command tex-insert-braces. Try that command
with M-x tex-insert-braces in case the binding has been changed.

You can see the definition with "C-hf" (describe-function) and visit
the source.
