ASA Rule 7 Sec 3. D. The batter shall not step directly in
front of the catcher to the other batter's box while the
pitcher [FP Only] is taking the signal or [SP Only]is in
position to pitch, or anytime thereafter prior to the release
of the pitch. It sounds as though the batter was not in the
box yet, so pitcher should not have been ready to deliver, and
I personally would allow this move without penalty. I might
warn the batter to be a little quicker in her decision, but it
sounds as though she was within the rule.
