There is Rule 8-6-f in ASA (and similiar in other organizations), which discusses "when the plate umpire interferes with the catcher's attempt to throw out a runner stealing, or an attempted pick off play."
Even with this rule, if the runner is out, the interference is ignored.
This rule is not about a passed ball hitting an umpire. It also has a specific note excluding situations where the interference with the throw is after a passed ball.
