yeah it’s an issue with HTML encoding of special characters. Trying to delete my sidebar that wasn’t working, the URL looked like this:

/wp-admin/themes.php?page=td_controller.php&td_page=sidebars&td_action=delete&delete_sidebar=Reports%20&%20Resources%20sidebar

I changed it to this and the deletion worked (swapped out %26 for &):

/wp-admin/themes.php?page=td_controller.php&td_page=sidebars&td_action=delete&delete_sidebar=Reports%20%26%20Resources%20sidebar

I have an ampersand (&) in the title of my sidebar that was causing the problems. I created a new sidebar with no ampersand and that one appears to be working fine. However, I am unable to delete the one with the ampersand, leading me to believe that there’s definitely a bug with any type of special character in the name of the sidebars…

oddly, as with the other person having a similar issue, while the widgets don’t appear on the widgets page, the widgets are themselves actually still there, as they show up on the site… in case that helps.
