What on earth makes you think she was working for Voldemort? She was a
fanatical supporter of Fudge and the Ministry working against Dumbledore. I
imagine if one of the Slytherins had been as outspoken about Voldemort's
return as Harry was she'd have treated them in the same way - however with
Fudge thinking Lucius is innocent and pure as the driven snow (yeah, right)
she probably would have favoured Draco.
