The DP playing for any defensive player other than the DEFO is a defensive position swap, so no players leave the game. The DP will continue to bat in the original position in the order, as will the defensive players the DP is fielding for continue to bat in their original positions.
Just like your starting SS can theoretically move from defensive postion to position with every pitch, so can the DP (theoretically).
The DP can play defense for the DEFO, but in that case the DEFO has left the game. This doesn't affect the batting order, either, but the DEFO will use up her re-entry rights when she comes back in on defense. If the DEFO bats, she must bat for the DP, and in this case, the DP has left the game.
