Moreover, based on the replay, it seems the crew got the call right. The fan reached over the field of play and touched the ball. That's spectator INT, and the crew can award outs and move runners at will. If the protest concerns the details of this call, it will fail on this account as well.

The details are unimportant -- judgment calls are never subject to protest.
It's whether West can use replay here or not.
