I found a rule for a live ball saying it is an out.
I find nothing in the book that says you have an out during this dead ball situation.
I do believe that you can't have an out during a dead ball situation with some exceptions (tag up, missed base on appeal). I don't see being assisted by a non-runner in that list of exceptions or dead ball appeals. Therefore you don't have an out.
If you don't have an out you have nothing.
End of Story
Not saying that this is morally correct outcome (allowing her to score) but I believe that would have to be the ruling.
