Not sure why no one picks up on the fact that the list you refer to in 1.) is hard to make an edible meal from.
You mention oatmeal and cereal, but if there is no vegan milk substitute to eat with it, how is she supposed to consume it? Eat it dry, or mixed with water? Nuts and fruit are fine for a snack but I don’t think it’s unreasable to refuse to eat only nuts/fruit for a day or more. The only thing I could reasonably see in that list that could be made into a warm meal is cooking quinoa and serving with nuts and tomatoes. I could well imagine why someone might not consider it a passable meal though, eg if she didn’t like quinoa.
Seeing you consider this random list of ingredients sufficient “vegan food” makes me think you didn’t particularly consider her position.
I did go out to get the potatoes. When I was sick myself.
It was very hard to find vegan food in the area, and I read through all of the different products in the store, looking to make sure they didn’t have any sneaky non-vegan ingredients, like whey.
She said “nobody in the house was willing to go out and get her vegan food”, but you can see that
There was vegan food in the house. We offered her oatmeal, quinoa, peanuts, almonds, prunes, tomatoes, cereal, and an orange, which were in the house.
I picked her up mashed potatoes and cooked it for her on that day. Despite the fact that I was also sick (eventually found out it was covid).
In the conversation with Drew, she says it’s fine, because she has mashed potatoes.
She said that we didn’t bring her vegan food and we did. The text messages show that.
Where are we disagreeing?

When I eat oatmeal or cereal, I almost never eat it with milk (non-vegan or otherwise). I soak oats in boiling water, and eat cereal dry.
You both agree that no one was willing to bring Alice vegan food that she wanted from outside the house.
You disagree about relevance/importance of the fact that there was different vegan food available for her.
