To me, her saying she isn't trying to reconcile but "she is open to the possibility" sounds like major cake eating.

Like you're the geeky loner in junior high, and one of the jocks is telling you he doesn't want to be your friend, but if you buy him lunch every day he will be "open to the possibility". Perhaps not a great deal for the kid wink

I understand the temptation, but if your ultimate hope is to see positive change in her, I think letting her avoid the consequences of her actions with no effort required on her part, is not going to help.
