Where did they get the idea that Meta needed any kind of justification to remove an account? That's ridiculous.

It's a court ruling. Courts usually get their ideas from applicable laws.

Typically, yeah, hence my confusion.

I'm not an expert on Colombian law, but I'd assume it's somewhere in there?

The problem with her case is that Instagram likely has no contract under which it has agreed to host her account, and can thus change it's mind at anytime.
