Saying that it was "not cool" on social media, causing a shit-storm (hence, mob morality). She could have just notified the organizers and have them deal with it, and be done with it. Maybe talk to the guys if she felt comfortable with that, but obviously she didn't. I don't hold that against her.
But instead she had to go the extra mile and tweet it in a state of fury and indignant rage. Sharing/shaming people on social media in order to get revenge; always an advisable move. Like being drunk and deciding that you should give that guy who you've always had a problem with "a piece of your mind". But surely, she couldn't have foreseen that sharing something like that might cost one of the guys his job? Except her job had to do with PR and social media. Come on; she knew what she was doing. She knows what kind of power having many followers on Twitter grants you. She knows how touchy this whole gender/women/tech topic is. And she wasn't sorry about it later.
Well, that was a nice trip down memory lane...

I'll bet a donut against a Kobe steak that if she (or a friend of hers) politely told those guys that she could hear them and that they were being disrespectful, they would blush and stop with the puerile jokes.
