It's legally and ethically fine as long as the copyright notice remains, right? I'd simply make a PR comment noting that the copyright notice should be included. They might not know it's needed, and either way lets them save their face. No need for drama unless they make it.
Without knowing the full picture, it sounds sketchy to me. You might want to reach out to her manager, or someone else on that level, who you trust. But if you do, it can have consequences. So you need to decide if you are ready to face the consequences. E.g. it could lead to her losing her job. Or you might lose your job. If you’re not comfortable with that, then maybe just look the other way.
