Was H4 to H1 applied as Chaneg Of Status, if it got approved did it come with new I-94? If yes, then your spouse is on H1 and as not working and not getting paid she is out of status. In order to get back into H4 status she has to leave US and return on H4 visa.

This is my opinion not legal advice.
