Personally I don't see how it can be out... The bowler has not bowled a legitimate delivery, so basically it is a dead ball situation as the ball has not returned into play?
My understanding of the rule - and this comes from TV commentators discussing the rule after a similar dismissal many years ago - is that the ball has to leave the bowler’s hand before the bails can be removed, ie transfer the ball from right to left hand. Don’t quote me on that
“Why don’t you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don’t you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don’t you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?” Oddball
