I mean, first, Abby had no idea that Ellie is the girl
Also, Abby had very limited information about why things happened the way they did in Salt Lake. All she knew really knew about Joel and Ellie's relationship is that Joel escorted her across the country. However, she doesn't know that Joel sees her as the replacement for his daughter that was murdered in his arms 20 years prior. She doesn't know how much they sacrificed for each other of the course of the 8 or so months it took for them to travel from Boston to Utah.
All she knows is that the smuggler killed her dad, killed her friends, and stole the girl. Even in that conversation with her dad, she believes in sacrificing yourself for the greater good. The only two people who probably understood the story the most were Marlene and Jerry, and even then they only had snippets of the full story.
