Just soft next her. If you feel the need to respond to her text, you can make up some excuse as to why it was better off for you that she couldn't make it, since you wouldn't have been able to make it either. Like, "I'm not mad, I had to stay late at work that night anyway." or "No I'm not mad, I've been sick as a dog the last couple days anyway."
See, when a girl does that shit to you, it DLV's you eventhough you aren't even doing anything. She's basically saying "Sorry I rejected you, but (this) was more important than you." And so when you respond, you are basically blocking her attempt to DLV you and saying "You're attempt to reject me didn't matter because I wasn't going to go out with you in the first place."
However at the same time you show the need to show you didn't feel rejected.
If you were sick or needed to work till late, why did you ask someone out in the first place?
I think many people would take the phone, read that message and either say or think "
yes, of course you were buddy..."
I usually simply reply with something like "no problem

". And most of the times it's just my real reflection, it's really not a problem. And if I see them again in person, it will most likely show it was nothing for me.
Just to overanilyze it, even better if the reply later in the night and, if on Facebook, via mobile, so it shows you're out/you've been out, possibly enjoying more than she did
