You really think so? This seems to be a major bone of contention in
the fandom. Lots of people (myself included) found
Umbridge's "punishment" to be weak and not nearly proportionate to
her crimes (i.e. she should be in Azkaban).

P.S. Now, if we learn in passing in the next book that she IS in
Azkaban, or permanently mentally disabled (there is no indication in
OOTP that she won't be just fine shortly), or otherwise engaged in
long-term and severe suffering, THAT will wrap up the sub-plot nicely.
