What you have said that "before she actually ate the fruit" "was already an act of sinning" is actually applicable to the "fallen man" or "soulish man" and NOT to the first Adam nor Eve, who had not known "sin" or "death" before.
Do you remember what the Word says? Their mind was opened
after eating the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil. Their mind were not opened before eating the fruit! The effect of "sin" was not yet in them before eating the fruit of the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil; only after they have eaten the fruit. After the fruit had been received in their body, only then "sin" or "death" manifested in them.
The first Adam or Eve experience at the Garden of Eden is totally different with what you were citing in your above statement.
