As JR pointed out, in FED, this is not a foul. In NCAA, different story.

In most rules (except FIBA), it is traveling to fall to the floor while holding the ball. Why not call that travel rather than trying to stand up?
Because apparently, she didn't fall to the floor. She never made it to the floor. So the question is whether it's traveling to fall onto another player. I would vote no, just as a guess.

If you let that one go, I would say that I would also not call traveling for the attempt to stand before passing; and for the same reason -- she wasn't on the floor.
