What are details in the story that will prove that arachnes pride is the reason for her downfall?

Arachne's pride is evident in her refusal to acknowledge the gods, particularly Athena, as she boasts about her unparalleled weaving skills. This arrogance leads her to challenge Athena to a contest, believing she can surpass the goddess. When Arachne weaves a tapestry that depicts the gods' misdeeds, her hubris provokes Athena's wrath, ultimately resulting in her transformation into a spider as punishment for her insolence. Her downfall is thus directly linked to her excessive pride, which blinds her to the consequences of her actions.

Would Athena have punished Arachne if Arachnes tapestry had glorified the gods?

No; Arachne's crime was boasting herself better then the goddess Athena in the task of weaving. She did not believe that the goddess had "taught her" or given her the gift of weaving; all talents are god given to the ancient Greeks. She wanted to have contest with Athena - and when Athena in the form of a old matron warned against it, indeed would have forgiven her if she had given the goddess her due respect - Arachne forced Athena to act. She further slighted the gods by making her tapestry a mocking of them.
