As Tom has already noted, this is an unreported sub instead of being an illegal player, and two totally different rules apply. For USSSA, as with NFHS, the initial penalty for an unreported sub is to warn the coach of the offense, note the substitution on your line-up card, tell the opposing coach of the substitution and go on with the game.

This player had the right to be there, she just wasn't reported.

An illegal player is a player who has no right to occupy the position she is currently occupying, and whether or not she is reported doesn't matter, as she has no right to be there in the first place.
