Ask yourself this: if she hadn't gone OOB, would you have blown the whistle? Of course not, this is just an interrupted dribble and there is no player control during an interrupted dribble. If she established on the court before touching, no violation. Of course, she can't dribble again.
So, find the case that says that if a player steps OOB during their interrupted dribble, it's a violation at that point, not when they come back in and touch.
Did you know there used to be a rule that if a player stepped on the division line during their interrupted dribble in the frontcourt, it was an over and back violation? This was changed only about 2 years ago.
