Here's the difference. An intentionally kicked ball is a violation. A touched ball is not. If defender B2 intentionally kicks the ball in this situation, A1 is still allowed to run the endline because of the violation. If B2 touches the ball and it deflects out of bounds, the touch has caused the ball to go OOB, but the touch itself is not a violation. The touch itself is a legal defensive play. In this case, a spot throw in for team A.
