Is this a violation?
I referenced 7.1.1

7-1-1:

ART. 1 . . . A player is out of bounds when he/she touches the floor, or any object other than a player/person, on or outside a boundary. For location of a player in the air, see 4-35.

This only tells us that A1 was OOB when they were touching OOB and A1 was inbounds when they stepped back in.
And note that one foot or both feet is irrelevant. If A1 is touching inbounds and not touching OOB, A1 is inbounds. It doesn't matter what part or how much of A1 is touching inbounds, just that A1 is not also touching out-of-bounds.
So, the question is only partially answered. Next, look at 9-3-1 and 9-3-2.
