It's not me. My friend did something I told her not to do. I told her that if she had a problem to do what they said and THEN file a complaint.

But she didn't and now they're considering, if they want her back or not. So because she didn't listen to me, she's in this siutation and I want to know how serious things are

it is called insubordination and is a terminate-able offense with "just cause" (no unemployment) with or without a contract.

"two wrongs don't make a right"
raising your voice and refusing to do as a supervisor ask is not mitigated by the supervisor being wrong.

EDIT:
your friend should have listened to you..........................
you gave good advice, now she will have to answer for this.

Unless you have a contract, you can be fired for anything or nothing in most jurisdictions.
