Personally, I cannot see a real reason for Salem to leave Cinder to die. She has Maiden Powers and was strong enough to give Ozpin a good fight and defeat him, even if his death is up in the air. Ignoring her weakness to Ruby's Silver Eyes, she's her strongest minion in terms of raw power. And she, so far, hasn't shown any signs of questionable loyalty.

Also, the Grimm don't "feed" on things like "grief and anger". They are attracted to it, but nothing else. Salem leaving Cinder to suffer RNJR's grief-fueled revenge would probably attract a few Grimm to the scene, but nothing worth killing off the only Maiden on her side.

Hell, even if the plan was to create a Grimm ambush on RNJR, they don't need to kill Cinder. Just ask Tyrian to kidnap some people and torture them, leave them for RNJR to find, and then their agony does the rest.
