There is no bitul lemfreia. Yisrael, af al pi shechatah, Yisrael hu. The
only way you can invalidate a conversion is if you could show that it
(1) pro forma was not done al pi halakhah or more relevantly, (2) that
the geir never was meqabel/es ol mitzvos. (However you might define that.)

The story doesn't say, but I bet something came out during the discussion
not about the mother's shemiras Shabbos today, but her shemiras Shabbos the
weeks after the conversion. That she never accepted to join the people
who follow halakhah.

("To join the people who follow halakhah" is my latest attempt to
include even the loosest definitions of qabbalas ol mitzvos.)

Tir'u baTov!
