Steve is dead on. When the batter is HBP, all baserunners forced are awarded the next base without libiality to be put out. Further Fed states that no action during a dead ball can allow a baserunner to advance or be put out except for awards and legal dead ball appeals. Therefor you can't "undo" the force.
Cecil is correct that we have an apeal play on any missed base. Fed requires that runners be given the opportunity to complete their baserunning responsibilities during a dead ball before an appeal is made. CR entering game was allowed, hit battter had passed 1st, therefor no appeal to make.
If batter is injured and unable to advance to her awarded base Fed does allow a substitute (or CR if applicapable) to complete the baserunning responsibilities.
