AnswerNot seeing the baby I can't give you any definite answers. Most likely, if she is moving around she will at the very least mostly recover, if not completely. I imagine she COULD have gotten brain damage, but that doesn't mean she DID. :) The best thing you can do is put her with her Mama, and keep an eye on her. And probably move the cage somewhere safer. :) I'll be hoping she's just fine!
