Azula suffered a mental meltdown because all those she cared about left her in the dirt. I'm not so sure she'd be so willing to "throw them to the sharks" as you put them if she valued them that much. Not to mention that she had hallucinations of her mother pointing out how what she was doing was wrong (mind, this was coming from her subconsciousness, not the spirit world). And even she was aware, to some extend, that not everything she was doing was right (she admit to being a monster, didn't she?).

Overall, yes, she was a crappy person, but she wasn't that bad.

If we are to get into details, she offered Zuko to restore his honor and place in his father's eyes. And she carried it out, before she was even sure they would take down the Avatar. Hell, before Zuko's half-baked lie about Aang being dead, he was already by her right side.

If Iroh, the man who probably has the most blood on his hands in the show, and Zuko, the one who betrayed EVERYONE and is partially responsible for Aang's demise, can have a second chance, why couldn't she?
