Alla:

How does that disprove that Snape showed favoritism to Draco when 
said teacher deliberately insults Hermione and then Harry and Ron 
start yelling?

Um, Snape is an "accomplished" ligellimens (spelling?) So, can't he just peek into their heads? JKR has mentioned that the whole story is from Harry's "perspective" Since Harry hasn't a clue about Snape's ability then... well, it would seem like he couldn't hear properly but could, instead, figure out what happened in other ways. So, yes, Snape was being a doo-doo head. And he was certainly being cruel to Hermione. (Which, depending on who you are, could be a good thing or a bad thing. I'm in the Bad Thing camp).
