The reason R1 was sent back to third base is because the ball went into a dead ball area. She is only awarded 2 bases from the time of the throw.

So ... the runner was at first base when the ball was thrown to third to get her out?

The "R1" in this case refers to the runner closest to home, not the runner that started at first base. R1 for this play started out at third base.
