Snape on probation

Why was Snape put on probation by Umbridge?  She seemed satsified with his teaching.  Also she seemed to listen to Malfoy's opinion of him.  I can think of 2 reasons.

1)  She thought Snape was too close to Dumbledore.
2)  She found something out about his background.

What did she find out?  Maybe she discovered that he was accused of being a Death Eater, but cleared.  Or, as she hates half breeds, as she tried to get rid of Hagrid and drafted anti-werewolf legislation, do you think this could be a piece of evidence in the Snape is a vampire or half vampire theory?
