Considering that AS cannot lie, if they made that Oath then they are bound to it. By the Tower's morals, the Rebel ferrets had committed a crime at least equal to the Rebel Hall's betrayals, so Egwene was indeed a hypocrite.
Nonetheless, I liked her in KoD and tGS. But I do hope that she is faced with her real faults more seriously in ToM/AMoL. Unless the idea is that she is MEANT to be a flawed character (like her predecessor in the AoL, who was a great leader but failed to work with LTT - possibly for the better in that case, but we don't know for sure). My fear is that she might alienate the Tower from Rand, and thereby severely cripple the Light.

What crime? Accepting her unethical promotions? Being afraid of the Hall's injustice?

It does NOT violate Tower Law, as Myrelle herself said, and Siuan admits.

No she was right, and even her blackmail, as reprehensible as that was, was not an act of tyranny
