It's not a bunt attempt. As others have said, if it hit the bat first, it would be a foul ball, not strike 3. She doesn't have to swing for a foul ball to be called. For example, take the high inside pitch that somehow catches the knob of the bat as the batter is trying to raise her arms and bat out of the way. It's a foul ball.
