You don't protect a runner to the next base because she made a bad running decision. You protect her to the next base because you thought she would have made it had there been no OBS.

Depends on where I rule she was obstructed. If the obstruction occurred AT first base, can you really call her out between first and second?
Just rule she tripped because of the obstruction, kill the play when she is tagged, put her at first base and everyone quit making giant circumlocular arguments.
