Let's say Hollyleaf slips up in her attempt to kill Ashfur, and he manages to escape via running away or throwing himself into the water and letting fate carry him away. What do you think Ashfur would do next? What would Hollyleaf do next? How does the story change?

Knowing him, he would have told the secret at the gathering, specifically calling out Squirrelflight more than Leafpool or Crowfeather. When Brambleclaw automatically breaks up with her, he'd take it as leverage to basically tell Squlif "Well you have nothing else, wanna love me?" And Squirrelflight would tell him no again. If anything I think Lionblaze may kill him.

He either drowns in the river or the lake because I say so.
But for real, Ashfur would totally expose the secret at that fateful gathering where ThunderClan had discovered his corpse while travelling there during canon at the end of Long Shadows and definitely tell everyone about how Hollyleaf tried to murder him while he's at it. As for Hollyleaf herself, I think she might have already had a nervous breakdown due to knowing he had survived her attack. This means the plot of Sunrise would have played out differently since the "Who killed Ashfur?" storyline is not taking up a large part of this book. In regards to how all the Clans take in these news, I'm convinced that Squirrelflight would try to tell them about Ashfur's involvement with Hawkfrost in Sunset but while Firestar, Brambleclaw and a few others might believe her, the majority of cats won't. The reveal of Crowfeather and Leafpool breaking the code and having kits together as well as one of those kits attempting to dispose of a fellow Clanmate is certainly going to overshadow anything else.
