It sounds like her involvement was mostly from her checkbook, rather than working with the chapter during rush week and things like that. If you're not there day to day, and it wasn't an issue when you or your child was in school...honestly, you really aren't going to think about it.
I'm not saying she should be excused from knowing the rules, but I don't think she purposely flouted them in a "I can do whatever I want, I pay the bills" sort of way - it seems like an honest mistake. As opposed to the guy SAEAlumnus mentions who thinks that writing the checks entitles him to push the fraternity to do things they shouldn't be doing.
Obviously this is all speculation, as we don't know the people involved or whatever their personal feelings/agendas may be.
