I believe you are correct, but I suspect that's why she's not actually asking damages for copyright infringement, but for DMCA false copyright information. Anyone injured by that can sue: https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/17/1203 https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/17/1203 It's a really big deal that this obscure section in DMCA (1202/1203) can be used for this, and I believe she has a good case.
