The violation could only occur when B14 "batted the ball" and it touched the backcourt.
If so, when this occurred, the following 3 things must be true for it to be illegal:
Blue has team control
Blue was last team to touch ball in frontcourt
Blue is first team to touch ball in backcourt
My argument is that:
(1) Blue does not have team control (ball batted away by white therefore no control by either team)
(2) Blue is not last team to touch ball in frontcourt (white was)
If B14 was able to secure control, and while standing in the frontcourt, batted the ball into the backcourt, it is a violation.
If she only batted the ball once into the backcourt, then dribbled, my interpretation is that she didn't have control until she dribbled, therefore no violation.
