And I could definitely see the org wanting to get all they could out of a chapter they closed - especially if they closed it for reasons of low membership (low funds coming in). Any org would do the same - they are, afterall, a business as well as a sisterhood.

I think the dispute is between Tri Delta's local housing corporation and their international organization - not the University. I think it is commonplace now for NPC groups to include a dissolution clause in corporation bylaws stating that if the chapter closes the assets revert back to the international organization, but probably there are older chapters without such clauses, hence the dispute.
