I've never heard of a company unilaterally enforcing a resignation with zero discussion. Whenever I've resigned HR always required an explicit, dated letter. Your statement that they were 'forced' to 'accept' her resignation at 'gunpoint' is all-round ludicrous.
If they were really 'forced' to accept her resignation, what harm would informing her that they couldn't meet her demands do? It seems painfully obvious to me they didn't want to risk working it out and just used this as an opportunity to get rid of her.

Negotiation is bad in those cases because they'll always resent you (and such demands are only made when emotions are at boiling point). I've literally never given ultimatums to any employer, because that's like negotiating with a nuclear weapon equipped.

You must always leave room for reconciliation and/or compromise. Unless you really would like the relationship to be over.
