Nine has since disabled comments on any Instagram posts related to her on their official accounts.
"We take our duty of care seriously, and vigilant social media moderation is an important part of this. Due to the high volume of adverse comments on Ines' posts, Nine's social media team acted proactively to moderate appropriately," a network spokesperson told news.com.au at the time.
"We reserve the right to moderate, hide or delete any posts, including video, photos, links or comments from followers on our accounts, or to block and ban any fans/likers. Posts or comments containing offensive, abusive, defamatory, spam or commercial messages or links to third-party pages/websites will be removed."
This latest scandal comes as last season's "villain" Davina Rankin - who was branded with the title after embarking on a secret relationship with another "groom" behind her partner's back - spoke out in defence of Ines' on-screen behaviour.
Amid a swell of backlash, Davina has spoken out in defence of Ines, reminding viewers that producers could be showing her "worst bits" on purpose.
"Remember, we are guided in a certain way (by producers) … so they could be just showing her worst bits," she told The Sydney Morning Herald.
As Davina pointed out, during her season, her "affair" was completely orchestrated by others.
"Dean was told, 'OK, get your phone out and get ready to text now,' and I was told the same and when to text with cameras and lights on us," she said.
"I never even kissed Dean … we were like guinea pigs."
Meanwhile, Ines has shocked viewers over the past week with her vile attitude toward her "husband" Bronson, frequently insulting him and at one point screaming at him repeatedly to "shut the f**k up".
The online reaction to her behaviour has been so critical, Nine has kept her away from the usual media appearances.
It's a similar situation to the one Davina, 27, found herself in as her "affair" played out last year.
"I got myself out of doing a lot of publicity when I started getting labelled the villain, which was good and kept me out of that spotlight," she told the Herald.
"Staying quiet was the best thing I could do. I tried my hardest to stay away from social media too. If you can't look at the trolls, switch them off. If it is getting to you, walk away."
Davina also revealed that she can no longer watch the show as she "can see right through the bulls**t".
"So far I have only caught five minutes of each show while I am cooking dinner before I turn it off," she said.
