we've seen any number of times that a Channeler can make an exact copy of weaves

Just like she outsmarted Lews Therin in the War of Shadow and prevented the Hundred Companions from patching up the Bore. She clearly had convoluted intricate improbable contingencies for such a situation. It's what I would have done.
And so on.
And so on.
Which she taught her in 5 mins to make weaves she took 100 lifetimes to master
rofl
if they are made right in front of them.
Ramshalan knew Nynaeve was with Rand and basically sat there listening to Rand's plan before he strolled into Graendal's lair... I don't know why people think this is so implausible. We know Graendal would have interrogated him in her Basene disguise and gleaned more information that he even realized he knew.
The leap in logic here is really regarding Graendal having a female channeler at hand to play it out. Which is the big reason for me to be skeptical about this scenario. I don't rule it out as it was the first thing that popped into my head when I started thinking about possible ways Graendal could have escaped.

What about this little 'Graendal survived' theory?

If Graendal didn't know Rand would use balefire, why would she have Delana do the Compulsion?

Yes, Graendal completely outsmarted Rand.
