water is warmer than ice, so the ice cracks under the warmth

When you pour boiling water in warm water the temperature obviously decreases.This is due to zeroth law which states that:
If two thermodynamic systems are in thermal equilibrium with a third, they are also in thermal equilibrium with each other.Or also , when a body is in contact with another they both exchange heat until they are in thermal equilibrium with each other.
This is only only factor causing ur ice cube to melt.The second one is that the ice cubes trapped inside try to escape when ou did what you did.You may want to know that water increases by 10% in volume when its frozen.

the light and clear colors from ice are trapped air bubble so when you pour something over them they weaken the outer rim and allow the trapped air to escape. it will not happen with clear ice because their is no trapped air

It is due to the sudden change in temp
