The idea of consent is a tricky one. Not so black and white. Especially on college campuses where casual sex is so frequent. If they were bf and gf, were drunk/fooling around, one thing leads to another, he flips her over and puts in it that end without asking and she doesn't protest, is that rape? Some would say it is.
In college I was always taught 'yes is not the absence of a no'. Apparently you have to ask over and over again 'do you like that?' 'do you want me to do this?' 'are you sure?' which obviously not everybody does. You kinda know when someone wants to have sex and when someone does not. I'm rambling but I guess I mean it's down to a specific situation, your relationship to that person, what you define as 'consent'. We don't know what happened here. But I do think regret and the fact she might not have enjoyed the sex doesn't equal rape.
