Have they pushed any male authors in that time period? There's a Tor-centric blog network that is pretty explicitly doing affirmative action style promotion of women and minority ethnic group authors. "Safe, media-conglomerate friendly DEI SF" is practically Tor's brand at this point.
I'd put e.g. James A Corey in the same bucket (though I can't remember what proportion of them is actually male?) but I honestly can't think of any new male authors from Tor over that period. (They're Cixin Liu's US publisher so you might count him, but he's bad in so many different ways that I don't know I'd put him in the same category). And even beyond publishers, few of the authors being pushed by newspapers/Goodreads/etc. seem to be male.
