Chinese tech companies want Nvidia's chips. The Chinese government wants domestic one. The Alice Huang leak blurs the two, and Washington's chip hawks benefit.
This is a good case for her not being a government spy, and I tend to agree. However, if we are placing bets, my money would be on the corporate white glove hypothesis. It’s plausible to me that Alice Huang was an industry fixer US intelligence couldn't concretely tie to Beijing so they leaked enough information for public opinion to make the (false) connection.

Thanks for the article. We’ve reached the same conclusion. I’ve posted a similar article that breaks down the two main allegations:
1. Nvidia chips systematically routed to China, bypassing US export controls
2. Alice Huang was a Chinese spy
