Same old walk

FP softball HS/NFHS rules.
Batter receives a walk, (ball 4). Is the batter/runner protected from being taged out by a def. player with the ball. if she runs past 1st base, turns left or right, and returns directly to 1st base, with no intent, fake or movement to do otherwise?
please site something (ie NFHS rule #) if possible.

We understant about the look back rule in effect, but about half of our association thinks she cannot step off 1st base and be protected.

I know this has probably been batted around 50 times.
