LIke so many answers to questions of this type: it depends.

Action: "I told Alicia how much weight I had lost, she just laughed."

Why action? Because it is an intransitive verb where there is no recipient of the action.

"Saying": "I told Alicia how much weight I had lost. 'Won't the doughnut shop go out of business?" she laughed."

Action: "She scoffed at my accomplishments."

saying: She scoffed "Yeah, like that matters."

The difference is in the presence of something said or, in this case, laughed.
