Assuming it didn't break (which I doubt)....Needle nose pliers to snap it back in the holes.

It has happened to me before and that is what I did....

Hook in one hole....put the other end on the curve of the base and pull around (with pliers) until it goes in the other hole.

.... and then use a larger pair of pliers to squeeze the D-ring a bit so it won't slip out of the holes again.
