Only if you felt her actions prevented the defense from playing on someone else.

could have possibly made a play on R2 or R3 as they all are walking back to original base unaware that they could have legally stayed on the base.

I don't believe "could have possibly made" is enough. You have to judge that the retired runner did prevent the defense from making that play. For example, if it appeared that F2 was going to throw the ball toward second, and then she stopped and threw to third instead, then you could make that ruling.

Yes, they could have CHOSEN to make a play on another runner. They did not. The scored runner did not prevent them from doing so.
