It's already certified platinum which means there's going to be at least 300k copies shipped back to her label. Re-releasing the album will legitimize the cert, but it's still a huge financial loss.
They should have used the Katy Perry approach and just kept pumping out singles to sell out as much of the first shipment as possible. It can't be anymore costly than re-releasing and pressing all new copies of the album.
