You cannot delay an interference call to see what happens afterward. When it happens, you call it. The only exception is on umpire interference by the plate umpire with the catcher's throw to retire a runner.
When it happens on a foul fly, you have to judge at the moment the interference occurs that the fielder could have made the catch with ordinary effort had there been no interference.
