God defines the definition. If God declares someone or something is holy, then there can be blasphemy. Like sin, I cannot blaspheme you, neither can you blaspheme or sin against me.

With Mary, only the Roman Catholic Church has declared her holy, not God. The dictionary is using blaspheme in a secular sense, like "He commited blasphemy against Islam."

And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven. -Revelation 13:6
