She's more of the crackpot conspiracy theorist who just so happened to stumble onto an actual conspiracy in her research. She still believes the Maidens are just advanced Dust users (which hinders her ability to discover the Brotherhood due to her arbitrary skepticisim) and has no knowledge of either Cinder or the Brotherhood's members. And the Semblance can work without Dust, but it'd be like using Ren's aura shields to smack someone (and as long as she has her gloves, it will have at least some Dust augmentation).
