If Helen had screamed it at Ashleigh and threatened her like the Matthew incident you'd have a point. But that's not what happened. In fact the opposite, Ashleigh said it directly to him. Are threats not banned in BB? We're not talking about legally, we're talking about Big Brother, where the rules used to be pretty clear.
But they also pick and choose when to punish nomination discussion so I'm really not surprised.

Again going back to the formal warning. Helen has been warned that she is being monitored. Her past behaviour was too aggressive. Anything that she says has to be taken more seriously.
People make idle threats, and overblown statements, all the time. But on a show like BB, in a working environment, in a school, in a social group, if you have been warned about your behaviour and language in the past, you will be treated harsher for any lapses.
