Not a question, rule is specific that it applies on "any fly ball".

What if the runner takes the running start, hits the base after the fly ball is first touched, but only advances a few steps trying to draw a bad throw? Is this still a violation?

And yes. As noted above, the effect is out when this occurs on any fly ball
