How is matter added to the singularity at the center of the black hole if the singularity is just a tiny point? Why wouldn't it just orbit really fast?

We don't really know what happens under these conditions -- there is good precedent for believing that quantum effects become significant at this scale, and we don't have a working theory of quantum gravity which can make accurate predictions under such extreme conditions.  It is likely that there is no such thing as a singularity in nature.

Because inside the event horizon of a black hole, *all possible paths* terminate at the singularity.  In order to orbit near the singularity, you would need to reach speeds greater than the speed of light, which is not possible.
