Not getting water or water is just running through the tank? You shut off the water, probably right below the toilet. The washer in that valve may have come apart and is blocking the line. The fill valve in the tank may need a new diaphragm. Check to see if there is water getting through the shut off valve and follow it to the toilet.
If water is getting to the tank and running through, make sure the flapper is sealing the drain. Perhaps the chain became tangled in moving the toilet and it's not letting the flapper close all the way.
