I would use the following two-step technique:
1.
First use the "Create custom lists" tool (in the "File tools" toolset) to create a list with the following template:
<Filepath absolute> ; <Title> ; <Artist>
Also, set the filter to only process files containing "feat" or "ft." (or any other "feature words") in the artist field.
2.
Use the "Tag/Rename from list" tool (in tag mode) with the following (advanced mode) template, taking input from the list you just created:
<Target file AP> ; <Title-1[|]> ; <Artist> feat <Title-2[ ft.|]>
Where the "feat" string is the one that is really used inside the artist field of the files. If there are different such "featuring words", you might want to repeat it once for each of these words to make sure it's right.
This will also have the nice side-effect of having the same "featuring word" (like "ft.", "feat.", "featuring") on all the files after the process. This is the word that is inside the "Title-2" tag, in the case of this example "ft.".
Please read more about "multi part fields" in the program help file if you don't understand what just happended.
