I'm not sure he kills her in cold blood either. But they are really showing her smoking, yes cause she's stressed, but it seems more than that. There is lots of ways they could write that deadly cigarette back into action now.
Of course she couldn't smoke it as is, I don't think that would do the trick, but it doesn't mean she can't find it, be confused by it, open the powder and identically inhale/ingest some of it.
I think Yasa is right on the nose. Maybe another assassination attempt comes up on some rival and Walt puts the powder in the cigarette, but Skyler finds it before it can be used.
Don't know if that would do it, but as has been mentioned previously in the thread, the science of some of the show hasn't been completely accurate anyway. Doesn't mean they wouldn't write it that way.
