Nope
Doing something else would have required a spine, however.
She has decided to champion the one deal that (a) everyone hates and (b) doesn't actually fulfil the remit of the referendum.

What are the chances she wants it to fail so they can pull out of, er, pulling out?

That'd work for me!
She was a remainer during the referendum, after all.

Then why she's so adamant about no second referendum?
Unless she's leaving that for a successor, of course.

That's what I'm getting at. How much of this is a play?
"Oh, looks like it won't pass the vote. Since a crash exit would be worse, let's ask the public what they think now!"

If it doesn't pass, Labour's making noises about a No Confidence vote.
I hear what you're saying, but a second referendum is despised by the Brexiteers who make the somewhat not unreasonable point, "Why should we vote again? They didn't listen to us last time?"

I read that a little differently.
She's decided to champion the one deal that doesn't throw the entire UK into economic disaster.
I reckon that her political double-speak notwithstanding, she thinks satisfying (b) would be bad for your country (as I do) but still wants to tell the brexiteers they're winning; reasoning that if they believed Farage, Johnson and Rees-Mogg, they'll believe anything. She might not be far off if recent polling that the public is behind her is any measure.
