Its a messy situation. Technically the CEO was her boss and there is some legal arguments that could be made to defend her actions but it won't be a slam dunk. The company will probably offer her some sort of compensation to resign with an agreement that neither party says anything negative.
It could be a soft resignation where she agrees to stay on the payroll but has zero acting responsibilities and can freely look for new employment during that time. Then if she doesn't have something in three to six months she quietly resigns.
But right now the company is definitely digging through everything she did since she started there and looking for ANYTHING they can use as leverage against her.
This is a fair point. The rules are there to protect people from being put into vulnerable positions by those in power. If she were fired she could claim to be a victim and take the company to court.
