I'd very carefully put her back on her back and leave her alone.
You could kill her if she gets stuck partway.
I hope she molts all right. NO crickets or any other food in there til she's done molting and her fangs get a chance to harden back up.
Educate yourself more so you don't hurt your spider.

When a tarantula is molting it is very very sensitive.DONT FEED IT or a simple cricket can kill it while molting..she will be ok if you didnt touch it much..Good luck

The risk from moving her is that she may be unable to completely exit from her old skin. Tarantulas can become trapped and end up losing limbs or worse. I assume you turned her over gently and returned her gently to her position, she will probably be fine.
