"She has not lied about anything, but has definitely given some 
misleading impressions ...
but whether this has been intentional or not, is not at all clear, given 
that she is autistic
and is probably kinda clueless regarding others' perceptions and 
intentions..."

Yeah.  She definitely doesn't try to mislead people -- I think that if anything, this situation represents one in which the limitedness of neurotypical heuristics really stands out.  Keep that sort of thing in mind when designing your AIs. :P
