I wasn't saying that Ilia's feelings for Blake were the entire reason she avoided directly attacking Blake.

Even though she had doubts about the White Fang's actions, she still took part in them anyway and continued to listen to the Albains' brainwashing.

However, when it came to Blake, the combination of her doubts plus her personal connection with Blake stopped her from attacking. Instead of merely seeing Blake as someone to be dismissed as a traitor and dealt with, she still saw her as a person she cared for. The way she feels about Blake merely increased her hesitation.
