It was previously reported by The Hollywood Reporter that Victoria Alonso was allegedly fired by Disney for a breach of contract when she worked on Amazon made movie Argentina, 1985. Disney stated the reason for her firing was because of “an indisputable breach of contract and a direct violation of company policy.”

Attorney for Victoria Alonso, Patty Glaser, spurned this narrative, stating, “Victoria, a gay Latina who had the courage to criticize Disney, was silenced. Then she was terminated when she refused to do something she believed was reprehensible.”

Sources have told The Hollywood Reporter that insiders at Disney believe the “reprehensible” act to be a request to allegedly censor gay Pride references in Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania for the Kuwait market.

Allegedly, Marvel executives asked an editor to blur a storefront window featuring rainbow decorations and the word “Pride” for the Kuwait release of the film. 

The request made its way to Alonso, who is gay, and challenged then CEO Bob Chapek to push against Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” bill. When Alonso and her team got the request, Alonso reportedly refused to let her team make the edits for Kuwait.

Disney’s policy on edits on their films is this: “In countries where we operate, we seek to share our stories in their original form as we and the artists involved have created them. If we make edits because of legal or other considerations, they will be as narrow as possible. We will not make an edit where we believe it would impact the storytelling. In that circumstance, we will not distribute the content in that market.” (Via The Hollywood Reporter)
