This way she can't retaliate against you.

If someone made a complaint about discrimination to me, as the manager, I had to report it to HR and discuss with the executive manager/director, probably with a company attorney, etc. People sometimes think confidentiality means you can't discuss w/anyone but in reality management has to report certain violations, complaints about illegal activity (such as harassment) to our upper management and our HR office.
