Petunia didn't blow up her sister Lily.  I believe she blew up her
sister-in-law Aunt Marge because Aunt Marge was running down Harry's
mother's family (that is, Petunia's side of the family).  And while
she may not have liked Lily, Aunt Marge is making some very general
criticisms of the Evans clan.  

And I don't think Petunia blew Marge up consciously; just like Harry
freed the snake in the zoo, it just happened based on strong feelings.
