Or maybe even Elluka didn't know that she died. We don't know the exact circumstances of her death. She could be trying to use magic when Irina suddenly stabbed her in her back. When she was revived, it wouldn't be odd that her memories got messed up, and she ended up thinking that the magic she used was the cause of all destruction.
