In the beginning of TGS, ch.17, Sarene makes a curious statement to convince Semirhage to work with them:
"You should be more careful," Sarene said from inside the room. The Amyrlin Seat, we have much influence with her. Your punishments, we may be able to persuade her to lessen them, if you are helpful."
Cadsuane hears those statements and doesn't think they are wrong, so it's most unlikely that this shall show that Sarene is a BA. But IMO those are basically lies, or not? I mean what big influence do those AS with Rand have on Elaida? And what does Elaida have to do with Semirhage's punishments that she might be persuaded to lessen them?
I think it's a bit strange. Or was Sarene one of those AS, who were stilled at Dumai's Wells, later Healed and is therefore not bound to the Three Oaths anymore?

Possibly she felt that Semirhage was so evil that the idea of lying to her was moot.

This one is iffy, but I'm going to chalk it up to Sanderson being a little careless and move on. *NM*
