Her version of the story indicates the door was open. Neighbor statements indicate loud knocking and shouting. Distinctive red carpeting in his apartment.

I'm pretty sure everyone that accidentally walks into someone's door isn't convicted of a felony. I think if anyone attempted to bring charges for someone accidentally opening their door, the courts would toss it out.
And it's murder if there is criminal intent. Manslaughter or reckless homicide if there isn't.
