There is no reason for the project to be shitcanned. There's no indication that this sort of research is illegal under international law. And why and who would mistrust to disassemble her? Figuring out what went wrong would involve going through her logs. This would be part of the investigation. If you think a nation will object to the theoretical human rights abuse, there's nothing they can do or would do. If she's property, they can have no objection. If she's a person, then she's a suspected terrorist, however coerced they determine her to be ultimately. And she's subject to Atlesian military justice anyway.

I doubt Penny would be the only problem ding this event, Atlas would be unable to recover her due to lack of material under their control in the area;

"It's not about overpowering an enemy. It's about taking away what power they have."

put this in perspective with Atlas, which as you said is the largest military power... and currently has much of their fleet in Vale, near the center of Cinder's plot, unless she specifically works for Atlas, they are going to be one of her main targets, if you want to start a long world war, you make damn well sure anyone holding something like nukes dies first or loses that capacity immediately.

and under my theory they already know what went wrong, the problem is that in the process of the event all the other nations learn whatever dirty secrets the creation of Penny required, her separation from Atlas is not about the event as much as what is revealed during the event.
