OK, there was no displacement, but that does not mean there was no foul. Displacement is the usual measure of a foul in this sitch, but certainly not the only way to determine a foul. Other rules still apply. Whacking a dribbler on the arm causes no displacement (except it displaces the arm) but we all call that a foul.
If it was as severe a push as you describe, I might have called the foul. At the very least, I would have said something about it.
