Looks like what I would expect for her background. Do you know of her having ancestry from any of those very specific regions assigned?

During the Reconquista Andalusia was largely re-settled by settlers coming from the north.

It seems that in her case those settlers were mostly coming from the North-East of Spain.

The Polish ancestry got split into Poland, Ukraine and Lithuania, this should be summed up.

Balkan can also be from Polish ancestry as long as her ancestors were Southern Polish (South Poles have Balkan admixture). Alternatively, it might be something that was brought in with the Goths (some of ancient Visigothic individuals were Balkan-like).

Interesting that she scored the highest in Valencia Alicante which is also your largest region.

I have no idea honestly. I know she's 1/4 Polish, however that's what my great great grandpa's record stated, only Poland, nothing specific, from what i know is that my grandma's last name is of Estonian origin, and i've read that there was a minor Estonian community in 19th century's Poland so i guess it makes sense!
