Change can come in all manner of forms. And if someone doesn't make a stand, then some people never change.

I was recently given a chance to move out of a section where I'm getting a great deal of grief from a manager. He arranged for me to move out of the section, for his benefit, rather than mine. I chose not to go because it would mean that a) he won, and b) there would be no-one left in the department willing to stay and challenge his unreasonable and unacceptable behaviour. My staying has made him rethink the way he behaves to me and the team (he's also got wind of the grievance the team is planning to take out on him on top of the individual one I'm bringing against him), and he's started to behave differently. We haven't done anything wrong, or yet official, but he's already started to act differently. If Hesp sticks up for her rights, then the change may be a whole heap easier for both her and her landlady.
