I can't speak for every institution, but our PR department does as many back and forth passes as it takes for the scientists who did the work to sign off that any edits made still preserve scientific accuracy.

I've never been in a science position, but if there are too many back and forths I assume it is a who has more willingness to put up with process before they just give up and sign off on anything.

There have been past complaints by researchers about their research being misrepresented, despite clarifying.

Unfortunately, they are just choosing to misrepresent the research sometimes.
