In the video, it appears she is called out. If the umpires ruled her safe, they screwed up. She obviously turns into foul territory after overrunning the bag. I am not sure what the point and arm action are prior to the call. You have the correct rule citation.
This is one of those "dirty" plays which coaches have tried to use to skate the rules for a long time. Interesting it is popping back up. In order to properly execute it, the runner must run straight down the line, essentially staying on the line, turn 180-degrees and come back on the line. Even then, its a cheap play.
