Both are in the wrong, really. Jacques for his lack of compassion towards Weiss, Weiss for losing her cool in the first place instead of walking away, and then the aftermath in Weiss's room has blame for both sides to go around. Neither are completely blameless, but neither are true bad guys either.

When a child is acting out, screaming at guests at an important function when she'd said that she was 'only going to get a drink' (meaning she lied to Jacques), it is a normal response for a parent to reprimand her. Jacques' fault was that he grabbed her, but not that he reprimanded her for screaming. Yes, Weiss is stressed after her time at Beacon. It still doesn't excuse her taking the childish route of screaming in this scenario instead of, once again, walking away.
