Speaking ASA, and just about every other softball org of which I am aware:

R1 is out.

Quote:
r1 lets r2 get back in front. ball is thrown home and catcher tags r2.
R2 is out.

Quote:
r1 is at third and b1 at second. pu calls r1 out, puts r2 on third and b1 on first.
Umpire is making it up as he goes. Hasn't a clue.

Quote:
is it a dead ball as soon as r1 passed r2?
No, the ball remains live.

Quote:
should r2 be out since catcher taged her at the plate?
See above.


As Dan mentioned, positions noted in softball are based on the order in which the player entered the scenario.
