Once the ball is released, the pitcher can put her feet any darn place she likes. I'm visualizing the ball is leaving her hand as she is bringing her pivot foot wide of the 24 inch plate.
Given the severity of the illegal pitch penalty (with runners on base, anyway), unless this was clearly in advance of the ball being released, it seems like a pretty picky call to me, especially if this was ASA.
