They confirmed in the commentaries that Neo's sembalnce is illusions. Not teleportation or creating solid objects, but illusions. However, Gray described it as 'physical illusions that can be seen by everyone' as opposed to Emerald's Mental Hallucinations.

There's still an afterimage of her there after the flash completeley dissipates, suggesting it's just an illusion, a fancy way of using her semblance which was confirmed as illusions by RT. On the other hand, Roosterteeth have never confirmed that she does teleport, so it's just a fan theory at this point and the wiki does not put fan theories in the articles.

It is mentioned on the semblance page itself, explaining that we simply don't know the full details behind how she does it.

"Regardless of what happened behind the scenes"

You can't just disregard what happens behind the scenes. It's the reason for most things not making sense, and they often do things that actually directly contradicts what the character is supposed to be able to do for "Rule of Cool". See Coco Adel disintegrating Grimm in Breach and then not even behind able to cut down a tree line in the Vytal Festival tournament. Monty did it, he didn't care if it made sense power-level wise or story-wise, he just thought it sounded cool. The same can be applied here. He couldn't be bothered animating their escape, so he threw up an illusion and had them escape off screen.

Still doesn't mean Neo can actually teleport.
