I am of course hoping that this was all just curiosity on her part but as a survior of child sexual abuse it just makes me wonder if someone taught the girl this behavior.

Something more is amiss with this girl. It need not be that someone said/did the
exact same thing to her. But, I would suspect that inappropriate, lewd behavior has been role-modeled for her by someone. In any case, with what's gone on in her home, it's a cinch to guess that her needs - for training in good behavior - have not been met. The incident does sound kind of like a cry for help. She is not getting her legitimate needs met.
I think you are wise, Always, to wonder what abuse she may have been exposed to, herself. That home has been in a state of emotional chaos. She has 4 siblings. Kids can sometimes turn to each other in strange ways when their parents are emotionally unavailable to them.
