With at-will employment, Chipotle can fire her for no reason at all.

> This means that employers may terminate employees for any reason or for no reason at all, as long as it is not illegal. [1]

Wrongful termination would only apply if Chipotle fired her for being a member of a protected class, or as retaliation for asserted their legal rights.

Neither of which applies here.

It was Minnesota, not Maryland. Employers in Minnesota do have to give a truthful reason for termination, if requested in writing [1]. I don't know if she requested that, but I would be interested how that would play out if the reason given is fundamentally wrong. In other words, was she fired "for being racist"? Or was she fired because "people on the Internet were mad at her"?
