If one of the two dudes had just punched her right in the face, and she gathered up a mob of her buddies to beat him rather than reporting it to the police, we'd all be calling her out for doing the wrong thing.
So maybe she was offended, but I don't care about her feels more than I care about her being punched in the face. If the solution to the bigger problem - punching in the face - is to talk directly to authorities to combat the problem rather than drumming up a public mob, why is it different here?
You can say whatever justification for /why/ she was offended or wanted them to stop, but this article just hand-waves at the main complaint that she responded in a drastically unprofessional and inappropriate manner.
So, really, someone give me a compelling argument on why public mob rather than authorities is how we deal with some, but not all problems with rights violations in an organized and regulated environment?
