She saw Rachael as a threat to the ‘happy family’ she wanted, and having the ability to eliminate that threat, she did. I don’t think she forced Adalind to watch, or manipulated her into believing it was a nightmare. Rather, Diana happily showed mommy that Rachael wouldn’t be taking daddy away from them. I’m not sure Diana would connect Rachael’s death to her father being accused. Despite her powers, Diana had a childlike mentality - If someone took her cookie, she’d take back her cookie. The consequences of overreacting to get her cookie isn’t considered.
I guess it would depend upon what you consider as force. She told Adalind she wanted to show her something and they projected into Rachel's room just as the sheets were smothering her. Adalind told her to stop, but Diana did not. The next scene is Adalind waking up in her bed, assuming she'd had a nightmare.

I believe Adalind bonded with Diana. I don't think Diana bonded with Adalind. When Diana questioned why Adalind and Sean didn't like each other, Adalind took the time to explain that she had not spent a lot of time with Sean. She went on to explain that makes people not know each other very well. She also told Diana she can't push people together, especially not a mommy and daddy.
Diana wasn't concerned with her mother's happiness, nor did she pay any attention to what Adalind told her. She didn't like Rachel and she didn't want her taking Sean away.
The best way to frustrate a cyberbully is to ignore him.
