No. In this case the ball is live, and play is still allowed.

Should R2 be penalized for trying for 2B when it was obvious that she didn't want to go there in the first place?

Yes. It is the job of the coaches and the players to be aware of the situation. In this case, they should know that with 1st base occupied and less than 2 out, the D3K rule was not in effect.

Or is it just too bad for the offensive team (double play) because BR should have never started for 1B?

Yup.
