Wow. I had pretty much your exact reaction. Except, I wasn't expecting it to be like ballet so much as I was like, "huh...don't really know what to make of this dance." And then halfway through, I remembered that she was interpreting a dying swan, and I was extremely impressed and in awe of the amount of control over her body. So yeah, it might just come down to a bit of personal taste on the part of the judges, but they shouldn't have docked points for it not being a "traditional" ballet, or at least not expected it.
