Yeah. Her command to Pycell was in direct defiance of Margaery. I think she knew there would be no repercussions.I just took that as her unwilling to give up any power, much less title. She also hates Margeary/the Tyrells, so I think she's just enforcing her stance of dominance whenever she can.
Now, I am intrigued by your Cersei idea and I think it has legs.
I don't see Varys as being directly involved--it would be hard to think he didn't know about it, and so perhaps is saying nothing could be seen as involvement. Between he and Little Finger, he seems to be the one of the two that shows any sense of honor. I didn't like him at first, but after watching the 1st BluRay stuff on maesters and their role in the kingdom, especially the eunuchs, I get it--he serves the realm and no particularly family. As such, he is so far presented as the only one with no direct allegiance, and is, in fact, aiming to solve things with little bloodshed--though he is not beneath seeking personal retribution.
Old creepy dude is a piece of shit Lannister knobjobber, and Little Finger will betray anyone as long as it advances his station (Still like that character), while Varys seems to be the only honorable weasel of the bunch--I felt his attempts to save Ned were genuine, and he even convinced Ned to admit treason, understanding that it would save his life (too bad Joffrey was a prick)
