I think another factor that played into the way Azula turned out is her mother. Azula believed her mother thought she was a monster. She said she didn't care but I really think she did. I think that deep down Azula was hurt of the way her mother favored Zuko so she worked hard to become her father's favorite child. Ozai wanted nothing less than perfection so Azula started to settle for nothing less too. I think because of the way Azula sought to please her father she started taking after him. She started using fear to control others and she couldn't really form any real relationships and that eventually to Mai and Ty Lee's betrayal which only made Azula feel more abanded. All her life Azula has been abanded by her family and friends and finally her father leaving her behind is what made her snap.
