One thing that still grates, however. Even as Mr Fankhauser explained how management had worked tirelessly, it did not sooth her anger that huge salaries and bonuses were paid out for failure. "They should have been paid on results," she said. "That's just the way it should have been."

1. ‘sooth’ should have been ‘soothe’;
2. I think the whole sentence is ungrammatical. I can’t find more information about ‘one thing’ from ‘one thing that still grates’, which ends abruptly.
3. Does the underlined ‘that clause’ function as the appositional clause of ‘anger’?
