Aura only protects against external damage though - Pyrrha's Semblance may or may not have crushed her insides (and been the real reason behind this), while the wires pulling on her body wouldn't first be considered damage

That, and it was so fast; Penny may not have been able to put it up in time, because her focus was on the internal crushing/sensations. And by the time she did, her body would've already been pulled apart anyway, and then it'd be of no use.

^That's what I thought at least, even at the moment of shock
