I think that they did a bit more than just talk! She flirted with Pete, in front of Nikki, just to spite Nikki (and by the way I think Pete is just as bad).

We rarely saw or heard see any evidence to back up their claims - just catchy slurs and insults, which were snapped up by BB presenters, who made it clear that Aisleyne was not their favourite. All of the presenters were horrible towards her until the complaints came in the final week.

Of course, but you take the rough with the smooth.
Let's look at Richard. The day before Grace's eviction, he had a conversation with Aisleyne concerning Imogen. Aisleyne called Imogen 'fake' and a 'manteef' during the conversation. Yet the following night, after the water incident, she was making up with Imogen and becoming her best friend. No wonder he and Lea had a go at Aisleyne's hypocrisy.
Then look at her tears
over Imogen's eviction. When Imogen was moved into the house next door with Richard, she celebrated the fact that she was in the final (while Pete, Jennie and Glyn were sad at the loss of their friends). All thought of her friend went right out of the window didn't it? Those tears were fake and a lot of people know it!

A newspaper article at the time quoted an inside source saying that the producers were engineering the programme to prevent Aisleyne from winning. Your suspicion that Pete and Glyn were always ahead overlooks the betting in the final week, which placed Aisleyne as second favourite. Some put Glyn as second favourite on Friday evening. Glyn had to overtake Aisleyne to come second.

If the producers were engineering the show to ensure that Aisleyne would not win then they did a pretty poor job.
She should have been nominated and evicted during the final set of nominations yet Pete, inextricably, changed his nomination from Aisleyne to Glyn. They could have got rid of her there and then. But it looks like they engineered it to keep her in!
Let's look at the final week. The moment that everyone talks about is Aisleyne's speech about Pete. The reaction to that speech (along with his 'I have a dream' speech) just exposed Pete's shallowness. Yet Aisleyne fans hold it up as bias against their girl!
The story you quoted was published in that paragon of truth, the Daily Star.
Very reliable.
