Welcome to EmpowHER. I am glad you reached out to our community with your question.
Basically, sperm can live outside the body for about 20 minutes. Once semen has dried, the sperm in it has died.
Washing her hands with soap and warm water would have been better. But, wiping with a cloth and rinsing should have removed any semen. There should not have been a risk for becoming pregnant.
