You say she's not involved with online fandom at all? Then I doubt she sees it as a TITANIC DEATH STRUGGLE, THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE! and if she has a negative reaction, it will be mild and not impact the friendship.

If you meant to say she wasn't involved in online fandom until BBC Sherlock, but now she is, then yeah, proceed with caution. People can get over-invested in their first fandom. It's normal, but they may react to any perceived threat or slight with extreme prejudice. Tread lightly until the ardor has cooled.

I guess I'm just worried because so many slash-loving Sherlock fan's reaction was that kneejerk "they made Watson a girl? NOOOOO!" one, and I would hate to have that discussion/argument with anybody in real life. I'm not afraid of our friendship dissolving because of this, that'd be silly, I'm just worried about a potentially annoying argument resulting.

She's not involved with the fandom itself, just fangirls among her own friend circles, but she is super-passionate. /shrug
