I doubt there's grounds for a lawsuit; "edit" has no nice universally accepted limits. If her contract didn't allow her final proof, she's probably out of luck.
If she were in Europe, she'd have some claim to moral rights, to have her name not associated with a work that's much different from (i.e. worse than) what she wrote. I don't think US has much in the way of laws about that. (OTOH, it might; Harlan Ellison got his named pulled from the Starlost and replaced with a pseudonym--Cordwainer Bird. But I've no idea what kind of approval agreements he had built into his contract.)
Probably the best results she can get is to speak loud and often about how they mangled her story, possibly following their announcements of new releases etc. on Twitter and using the same hashtags to say "don't buy from them" followed by a link to her article.
