Charges from the Tour organisation against the woman have been dropped, as I predicted.
Building a case would be very difficult. And if the Tour organisation (ASO) would loose, what then? More of those lunatics on the side of the track? Case law created....
I think the fact that the woman had to go into hiding to prevent the proverbial angry mob and she contacted the police herself also played a part.

I think everyone here understands the amount of training time commitment etc have been lost.
But the charges pressed aren't going to make up for that. That would require a civil lawsuit which would be far far more difficult with a lot of negative publicity.
It's not going to come to that.
