If the case is filed you can be arrested and be required to make bond if you are to be released from jail before the case is concluded. From what you wrote it appears the police do not plan to file charges if you do not communicate with the complainant any more. It this is true and you do not call or write or have anyone else communicate with her on your behalf the problem may never come up.
It may be advisable for you to contact a lawyer to monitor filings so that if a case is filed you can make a personal bond with the court to avoid arrest.
