I'm pretty sure I'm going to let it go but I'm going to ask an attorney tomorrow. Since I now know and the bank has paid me, I may be legally obligated to turn her into the bank even if they choose not to prosecute her. I would hate to break some sort of law and end up getting bitten in the ass on this by withholding her info from the bank.

I actually knew a case just like this, a check stolen from a business and it was even for $1,000. It was a bar I worked at yeeears ago, a manager got fired and then forged a check thinking she wouldn't get caught.
And yeah, when you report it to the bank, THEY will press charges. She frauded them, not you, because you got your $$ back. Its pretty serious, she's going to be in some trouble for sure.
I just remember hearing the outcome of my experience, the bar owner laughed it off because he didn't have to lift a finger to even prosecute her, and it wasn't like she could even be pissed at him over it.
The bank probably already notified law enforcement.
