I don't think Indis was teh evol, because after all, Finwe wanted to marry her, not the other way around, and it did say that Indis loved Finwe for a long time, even before Miriel's death, but did nothing.
But that's the problem-- she does nothing, says nothing, makes nothing. When all the uproar's in Tirion, and Finwe was killed, we don't see her on the scene. She's sort of... absent, which is strange, all things considered. I imagine she must have had some impact on Nerdanel (who moved in with her) and her choice to stay, but apart from that...
Actually, seen in that light, Indis really isn't much of a diplomat. Having Nerdanel move in was probably the last thing she could have done to improve matters between her and Feanor. I imagine that the dislike was mutual.
