Basically what she did was blocked their ocean traffic and the they passed what they called the justice bill. The Bostonians it as "The intolerable act" Because they had been cut off from most town held meetings, also, the British did not bring them food or clothing, until the tea they had dumbed had been paid for. (Mind you, the tea was expensive, and they dumped chests full!) They relied on other colonies and such for food and clothing.
