I think that's what tips the balance. I'd give the benefit of the doubt if that were only Taylor vs PG, two sides of the same story.
But when she tried to throw Hale under the bus, "she is not Bayonetta, I am Bayonetta", she lost all credibility.
Probably, after the remasters on Switch and Bayonetta in Smash, she thought she had a hit. Overplayed her hand, got "fired", and thought that could force PG and Nintendo to domehow rehire her.

@Ryu_Niiyama The only thing that may sound like it is her statement saying that "[she] support[s] every actor's right to be paid well".

At the tweet immediately after that, she inserts a thread that says that "you haven't heard the whole story" if you haven't heard both sides, that spreading only one side of the story may spread misinformation, and that "If the sources seem too biased/unreliable, seek better sources".

If she hasn't thrown Taylor under the bus here, at the bare minimum she is distancing herself from her and keeping herself neutral.

@Ryu_Niiyama Considering that Taylor was saying that Hale should be ashamed of accepting the job, and the pro-Taylor mob was saying bad things about her, I think that the shot was pretty much directly at Taylor.
But I agree with you, nobody knows all the truth. The only one that shared her point of view was Taylor; Hale possibly cannot do it due to her NDA, and Nintendo and Platinum will definitely not do it.
