Step off? No. Reset? Yes. Presentation? No such thing in ASA, but if you mean bring the hands together, yes.
When TIME was called by the umpire, the ball was dead. What the pitcher did during a dead ball (including holding the ball in her hand above her head) is completely irrelevant. When play resumes, she must restart the pitch from the beginning, including taking (or simulating taking) the signs.
What happened? Did the umpire allow her to resume from her "frozen" position?
