Sounds like it is. I'd imagine the argument they'd use if you try to fight them is that occasional would be 1 month out of the year, December.

So my question is can a company legally make you work these many hours, and if you dont show up can they essentially fire you ?I believe this is complete bullshit and the points should only apply to days you miss during your SET scheduled, which should be between Sunday and Wednesday, and not on the OT days she has missed. Any suggestions?

I don't think they're doing anything illegal. The situation sounds like it sucks, but if they have it in writing that she acknowledged that she is to work a set schedule and will have mandatory overtime days I don't think they'd be out of line to find someone that would fit the company demands better.
Honestly I'd just try to find another job if I were her. Something that could accommodate her needs for having the days off she needs.
Has she just straight up asked to not work Thursdays and Fridays? Maybe she could work on Saturday instead if that would please the company.
Good luck on the situation though.
