Since,  in mythology, the centaurs are associated with debauchery and 
orgies,  ...hmm a lot of bad things could have happened to Umbridge.  
Now  Rowling's centaurs seem to be different--more civilized. Who knows? 
Maybe  nothing. Maybe the traditional view is an unfair prejudice held 
by wizards  (and muggles)?

Sherrie here:
 
In Greek mythology, there were no femle centaurs - centaurs bred by  
kidnapping human women.  I've always thought that would be rather a fitting  vengeance 
on Umbridge, the hater of half-breeds...
