I would just stop her as she is heading past the location where she is allowed to wear them. Just say, "wait a second, no shoes past this point, mom- it's for the safety of all the little ones". I have a no shoe policy, too and had one dcm that used to push her boundaries until I had this conversation.
When I worked in a center, I used to always forget to take them off when I would pop into an infant room to grab something. It used to infuriate the teachers, but I was oblivious. Could she just be oblivious?

She told you no when she said "I will try". She has been taking her shoes on and off since she was a toddler. There's nothing to try.
She is bullying you. Tell her if she isn't able to actually take her shoes off rather than try to that she can't come into your home.

One thing I have noticed is that many people don't have any kind of bench by the door. Do you?
We visited some childless friends for a weekend. They had a little foyer with a rug, and a white carpet in the living room. It was pretty obvious right away (to me) that this was a "no shoes" house. But, no where to sit, and with winter boots that zip up, I found myself struggling to get them off while standing.
So, if you don't have a bench, maybe put one (or a chair) by the door. Otherwise a "STOP!" with hands in front of you.
We are 95% no shoes here. But, one of my moms is in the military, and I do not make her take off her shoes. She tries to stay on the entry rug, but sometimes I give her a pass, because there is no way she can take off those military boots, get kiddo, get him ready to go, and then also get her shoes on.

I have a small bench for parents to sit on… one dad just waits for me to bring his baby to him… his wife picks up 2 times week, takes shoes off and comes gets little man. Most parents kick off shoes and come in

Can you put up a walk-through baby gate in the area to provide a physical barrier for her? Hand her child to her over the barrier? I agree with the pp that said to just tell her "STOP!, no shoes on the carpet!".
