No that video is actually helpful. First things that jumps out is when she opens it looks like she stays open. The biggest thing IMO causing her lean, which is pretty bad, is her front leg collapses after it makes contact there is no resistance as a result her whole body has to follow, with a good push off nobody's core is strong enough to stay straight while trying to pitch against no resistance (of course this could be a chicken and eggs thing with her upper body coming all the way forward her front leg can't offer enough resistance). I would do lots of dry drills (or just into a net a couple feet in front of her we don't care where the ball goes for now) where she pushes off and stays on her back toe and laces to catcher, works the knee close to parallel, (per Amanda's video) keeps her chin up and lands on her front leg and then provides immediate resistance and stays straight and tall.
Our goal is to look like this (they don't have their noses in the air because they are stuck up prima donas it good form :
