I think they're aware how little their contrition counts for now, looks like they're just regretting the consequences of their own actions now they've realized what they've destroyed and how it isn't coming back.
Her apology also comes with many conditions and caveats.
She still doesn't believe Tucker Carlson's version of events.
She refuses to believe that J6 was "mostly peaceful chaos".
She still calls J6 protesters "violent" who "violently entered the Capitol".

She still pretends the Capitol is some sacred place where plebs shouldn't tread.
The "apology" is bait to try to get people to agree with her version of events but pretend to acknowledge the actual events.
