Lalaine did not return as Miranda Sanchez for The Lizzie McGuire Movie because she was working on other projects, according to retrospective accounts of a 2015 interview. At the time, she was doing Radio Disney tours and filming the Disney Channel movie You Wish! in New Zealand. In the film’s story, Miranda is away on a family vacation in Mexico.
Why Lalaine missed the movie
Lalaine later described a busy schedule outside the Lizzie McGuire series. Looper and Univision report that, in a 2015 interview with HuffPost, she said she was doing Radio Disney tours while filming You Wish! in New Zealand. That account points to work commitments as the reason she was unavailable for the movie.

Disney’s series page identifies Lalaine as a cast member and Miranda as one of Lizzie’s friends: Disney’s Lizzie McGuire page. The retrospective accounts do not include a contemporaneous studio statement explaining the casting decision.
Where Miranda is in the story
The movie accounts for Miranda’s absence by saying she is on a family vacation in Mexico. That is the character’s explanation within the story; it is separate from the reported real-world reason Lalaine did not appear.

Was there a feud or a studio dispute?
The cited accounts do not establish that a personal dispute or a specific studio decision kept Lalaine out of the film. The supported explanation is her other work at the time, as described in retrospective reporting of her interview; the movie itself gives Miranda a vacation as her reason for being away.
