Since the player was displaying a poor attitude by slowly leaving the court and the ball was in fact put in play, I would have no problem at all making the by the book correct call on this play. That call is a TEAM technical foul for having six team members participating. Notice that the T is not charged to this player, so it wouldn't be her fifth.

The team certainly earned this penalty by having a player display poor sportsmanship.

Rule 10 Fouls and Penalties
SECTION 1 TEAM TECHNICAL
A team shall not:
...
ART. 6 . . . Have more than five team members participating simultaneously.

PENALTY: (Art. 6) Penalized if discovered while being violated.
