It makes perfectly sense if you don't try to read too much logic into their actions and view it solely from the social dynamics/emotions (Murati early realised that the coup led by Sutskever, Toner and her had failed). Besides that, the board installing her as new ceo - who provided the main claims for why to oust the old ceo - wouldn't fly through with employees and partners. She knew that. Also some of the people on the board clearly weren't qualified for that job as you can see how this whole coup was carried out by them.
