Had Colleen just apologized would things have been different?

Wasn't sure what flair to use here, but I was thinking about this. Had Colleen issued a normal apology, and disappeared then come back do you think things would have been different? I feel like the Ukulele video is what did her in, as that has made so many lists and every list brings up what she did, so no one could ignore it. The Paul brothers filmed in a suicide Forrest and are still going strong after an apology, Pewdie Pie has apologize 1,000 times it seems, and all Colleen had to do was a normal apology video, and instead she made sure everyone knew what she did for years to come because of her narcissism.
