Looks like the right call was made although you are correct that the umpire should blown the whistle when it happened.

I also had a situation in a match that I call that could relate to this. Team A player runs towards the bench and plays the ball legally and goes to the floor in front of the bench at the feet of their coach. Team A's coach then proceeds to help the player up and push her back to the court to get her back in the play. The umpire blew the whistle calling the player out of bounds due to the coach helping her back out. I agreed with the reasoning but do not know if that is the correct call.
