Someone had Zola prepared for this sort of thing. Presumably the Order's Sparks, since she isn't one. Using juicy insider knowledge of renegade high-ranked Geisterdamen. Now those in the know would assume that since Zola commands Geisters, either she is a Lucrezia, or impersonates one (which requires more insider knowledge). At this point she could as well report shining success of the operation (whether it was so or not, of course). Not doing so would be far more suspicious. While compliance does not remove suspicions completely, they can at least have those who know her take a look and decide the mannerisms and attitudes are 100% Zola. Unless some form of non-destructive analysis of what goes on in her brain is an option.
