And he'd also shown that he considered her no more than a convenient ring delivery system, so he wouldn't team up with her.She tries to speak to Elrond and Adar threatens to cut out her tongue if she utters another word. After that, she has no easy way to reach him. Also, Elrond already knows there's a strong chance Sauron has infiltrated Eregion again, he's just dealing with the problem in front of him first.One thing I thought might have happened that didn't was Elrond slipping Galadriel the Ring mouth-to-mouth during that kiss, as it otherwise felt a bit clumsy even as a cover for passing her the lockpick-brooch.</blockquote>
