I keep asking myself what this punishment is about, really. And I keep thinking that perhaps it's much more minor than we're making it out to be.
From their perspective, Harry and Draco went where they weren't supposed to go. They nearly got themselves 'killed' and - possibly - their actions resulted in the loss of a magical creature. I'm not even sure they know that that was Harry's original plan, freeing Buckbeak.
So. He might not have any reason to legilimise her, mightn't he? Not that he needs a reason, mind you, but she did say that usually he considers her beneath his contempt.

We could be panicking over the wrong thing.
