The Guardian isn't a right-wing paper, it's left of center, and I can't remember when it last endorsed the tories. You'd be far more likely to see that kind of thing from The Telegraph or The Daily Mail.
There's another explanation much closer to home which doesn't involve Theresa May: The Guardian, like many other newspapers, is under intense pressure from Facebook which is eroding their direct traffic in favor of traffic coming from FB. They literally compete against each other for clicks and ad traffic.
