Which sort of makes sense in the MCU, since they had the mind stone (in Loki's staff) when they were doing experiments on her. It also meshes with what she did in Age of Ultron in terms of messing with peoples' minds.
However, as far as the comic book version goes, her powers are supposed to be about changing reality, so it'd make more sense that her powers come from the Aether, and based on the visual appearance of what she does and what the Aether looks like in Thor 2, there's a resemblance there (as opposed to Vision's yellow forehead lasers). Also, her mind-F stuff that she did in Ultron would also translate to altering someone's subjective sense of reality. And you could as easily say that she can destroy an infinity stone because her powers mirror that of an infinity stone, even if it's not the same stone as the one she's trying to destroy.
So... maybe?
