I don't think you can boot the ball into a sliding runner and expect to be saved by an interference call because you couldn't then bend over and pick up the ball. A runner who is close enough to the base to slide has the right to slide into the base.
In fact, I think there's a case play on this that doesn't even involve a ball that has bounced off a fielder. Something like grounder up the middle that the runner contacts while sliding into 2B. The ruling is no call, as I remember.
