She's Nike sponsored. They aren't exactly poor.

And AC responded both in the article and online indicating they were addressing the issue. So as far as we know they will take care of it. She's the one who posted the angry reaction implying they might only offer $200 or whatnot. No one knows what was offered except for her. Until then, she's simply responding angrily and riling up the masses.
