I've just 'jellyfished' back, for once.

A woman I work with in the same department clearly doesn't like me - makes no effort to have been the smallest chat etc. Fine.
But, if there's ever the slightest issue, she always puts it in writing and involves my line manager. Having been at work with her all day today, she's waited until this evening to email me, copying in my line manager. What's she's mentioned isn't actually something I've done wrong as far as I can see (and I've sent her a screenshot to prove it), and I've also contacted the other person involved to make sure they have the right information.
Having done that, I've emailed her again, saying that I'm puzzled as to why she didn't talk to me about it - we even have a policy at work about this.
I've had enough, this week is the most stressful one of the year, and I've let it go so many times, and have even offered to have a face to face with her with the line manager present to clear the air, which wasn't taken up.
AIBU?

@Thehippowife, that's a bit difficult when your line manager brings the (non) issues up in your 1 2 1 meetings. Ive responded in a relatively neutral way (apart from requesting the meeting to clear the air). She still carries on.

Good for you OP. I can’t stand jobsworths like this! Why not just approach and resolve with you in work? Involving line manager each time is unnecessary. Update us with their reply!

I finally got back, 'oh I'd forgotten until then, sorry'. Yeah, right..... Hmm

Oops! Just realised I'd already said this @Lacoeur.

“oh I'd forgotten until then, sorry”

then she could have sent you an email to pick up the next day, Without copying your manager.
