A simpler solution might be

preg_match_all("/(['\"])((?:\\\\\\1|.)*)\\1/sU",$str,$str_instead);

(opening ' or ", then a sequence of (backslash followed by the same type of
quote, if possible, otherwise any single character), then a closing quote)

or

preg_match_all("/(['\"])(.*)(?<!\\\\)\\1/sU",$str,$str_instead);

(opening ' or ", then any string (as short as possible, due to the U flag),
then a matching ' or " that is not preceded by a backslash)
