Contrast with...is the idiom
B is wordy, hence A

"She" should refer to a person. However there is no noun by the name Frances Wright here. Isn't the question flawed in this sense?

I have seen other SC1000 questions in which the expression "In contrast to" is used (SC1000 - #372 for example). So, are both "in contrast with" and "in contrast to" correct ?

"Contrast" is used as a verb in this sentence, so the correct idiom is "contrasted x with y".
