Verin compelled each of the Aes Sedai she visited to find their own reason to swear fealty to the Dragon Reborn. Said that pretty explicitly in book 11, IIRC. Elza did so to keep Rand alive and well until the last battle, because she was one who felt it was necessary that Rand die AT THE LAST BATTLE for the Dark One to win. After compulsion was gone, she was half a zombie with glassy eyes, and it didn't take much for one of the Chosen to say 'no no no you pathetic worm, if we kill him now, it's just as good as him dying at the Last Battle.'
Apart from that, either the wards (or traps) Cadsuane left on her box failed (less likely) or Shaidar Haran got close, and nullified them (as we know him to be able to wink out the One Power whenever he's near, so most likely.)

What interests me most about this situation is How did SH know that Elza had compulsion?

Nice find! I knew Myrddraal could detect some channeling, but I didn't know if they could
