No. The FLEX can bat for the DP, but it is the DP who has been substituted for, not the FLEX. The FLEX is still in the game, still, as far as your post indicates, doing her job, which would be playing on defense. So...she is still in the game.

Not sure how you are coming up with this being an illegal substitution. Your post doesn't indicate anything of that nature.

Speaking NFHS, IF this was an illegal sub, then you would restrict the player to the dugout. Depending on what else happened, you could have also possibly gotten an out. If you were to clarify your post with details, then perhaps one of us could provide you with more info.
