I don't have a rule, or any other citation, but can't we rescind the timeout and just allow her to tie her shoe? I sure hope so. If a player with an untied shoe comes up to me and asks if I can stop the game to allow him to tie his shoe, if his team is holding, or dribbling the ball, I'm probably allowing it. Safety first.
