If you read "muff" as attempting to end a dibble, then you have a dribble-fumble-dribble situation, and an illegal dribble.
I read it as a dribbler under control splits defenders and loses their dribble and attempts to regain control, and that is an interrupted dribble.
We need more detailed info from BITS.

I guess I misused the word muff. She was dribbling, lost control of it, and was attempting to regain control. In process or regaining control she touched it with one hand, followed by the other hand (but not both at the same time) then was able to continue her dribble. The ball did not come to rest at any point. There was no attempt to end her dribble.

In that case, I agree that there would be no violation.
FUMBLE: Accidently droping a ball that was being held.
INTERRUPTED DRIBBLE: Ball gets away from dribbler...out of control
MUFF: Attempting to catch a ball but it accidently slips through the hands.
