Inasmuch as her problem is that (1) she wants to be a ruling queen of Westeros and (2) key political leaders do not view her as perferrable and wish to elevate a rival claimant... (3) her remaining allies repeatedly countermand her orders... burning King's Landing does not directly serve that situation. She has to kill Jon, and she'll have to kill Sansa - who is likely to look for nw rivals in the even of Jon's death
People do fear her, and they may feel second thoughts about being caught scheming against her. But it also engenders resolve in those who opposed her rule to do so more directly. It likely turns hesitant supporters (Jon, Tyrion) into outright opponents.
We have no idea how it plays outside of Winterfell and her direct camp, because everyone else is offscreen. It's possible that the population in the countryside doesn't care about the sack of Kings Landing and may actual welcome it if they think it ends the chaos & war.
