This sounds correct, but I have found no FED rule or case book play on it. Closest thing is 8-4-1d, which is talking about contacting a batted ball in foul territory with the bat while it has a chance of becoming fair. The definition of Offensive Interference would make it illegal to contact a fielder making a play on a ball, but there is no play to be made on a foul ball. 10-2-3g might have to be applied here to declare the batter out, and all runners return to base at TOI.

I would have be CERTAIN that the ball had a chance to become fair, ie rolling towards fair with enough roll to make it there to make this call.
