I think burning a little girl really rattled the little empathy and sanity she had left, much like it did in Selyse's case. Even if it isn't particularly realistic for those characters, I really did like that angle in the finale, seeing two radically religious characters who burned innocent people for seasons just break after killing Shireen. Never thought I would say this, but I genuinely feel horrible for Melisandre, and Selyse's suicide was emotionally too much.
