Windup - disengage

All - got a question more around mechanics of pitchers in the windup. would like to know the rulings for both OBR and FED.

Pitcher is in the windup and starts his motion. During his motion he picks up his pivot foot and disengages from the rubber during his turn. He then engages his foot back onto the rubber and delivers the ball.

If runners are on base, would this be considered a balk because of the disengagement. I cannot find this in the rules anywhere.

Thanks,
Jeff
