Allegedly? Here it is https://twitter.com/ashleygjovik/status/1435421599826518025?... In plain English the footnote says not to leak the email and she did it anyway, doxxing a fellow employee. Absolutely grounds for dismissal. Sure Apple has discretion, but why would they exercise it for an employee publicly embarrassing the company at every opportunity? She did this to herself, don’t blame Apple.

The thing she leaked was in the verge article on August 30th. She leaked an internal tool's name, codename, and screenshots and videos of it. It has nothing to do with any of the emails about her workplace issues.

She redacted the name so it isn’t doxxing.

Well someone at Employee Relations had a slot at 10.30PT filled on the company calendar. So it’s doxxing.

You're reaching. The general public doesn't have access to Apple's company calendar, so it's not doxxing. If some other employee looked up the slot and leaked a name, then that would be doxxing on the part of the other employee.
