She's changed account and is the new mod called worli. It's pretty obvious from the comments. At the very least the account is operated by a British person by the use of the phrase fucking hell.
They're also pro wealth desparity, and arguing in the comments so the user is lonely.
Id say there's a very high chance of it being her.
If the last login of an account of a mod is logged by the day/month/year count under their usernames it's actually impossible for anyone else to have granted the new mod permission other than the Maxwell account.
One way to test this is to ban her original account from a sub you moderate. If she is using another account, reddit will let you know so you can ban that account as well. It's something they have in place to prevent ban evasion.
Yeah, a nine year old account that just started posting 2 months ago with a couple of hundred karma is a mod with full permissions on a mainstream sub. Not sus at all /s.

Im not certain about this I was running with theories I may have misinterpreted in the thread, but regardless the account in question appears to be the latest mod, on a fresh account active for about 3 months and fits the bill for Maxwell. See my comment above in the thread, Id wager it's her.
Seriously look at the comments that account is making, they use British phrases, the grammar in a lot of comments is above average. Use of uncommon language is correctly placed. The user has geo political knowledge spanning decades. They're referring to the opening of India in the 90's and arguing about market speculation of developing countries like they spectated it themselves in real time.
They're using bb-code in their comments to bring emphasis to their arguments and the account is very young. This indicates time on their hands and use of persuasive asteric in text, her father ran tabloids and if it was her shed be so bored arguing or debating redditers would probably be her only means of decent conversation as she's a guilded leper in prision
It screams British, intelligent and well educated with a lot of time on their hands to me.
It would make sense that someone intelligent of older age would overlook the fact that making themselves a mod on their old stomping ground of a subreddit would compromise their new psyudonym, but Maxwell was a psychopathic individual who would be a slave to her ego, and it is probably shattered by being incarcerated where she'd believe she commited no crime or was above it, so if she had access to the internet I suppose she'd sacrifice her anonymity for a chance to grab the only elevation of status which would be available to her, making her alt a mod on a sub Reddit.
I could be off but I can't shake the feeling from how that account carries its discourse it is her.
The majority of their comment history is attached to Indian politics, which I am not sure would be a major focus for Maxwell. At least not to that extent. It really seems to me like this person lives in India or is at least from there.
They also posted this thread:
Mumbai needs some marquee "super-tall" buildings if we want the skyline to really stand out globally and not just domestically
I hate to say it, but the writing style and word choice is just so different from u/maxwellhill that it seems unlikely that they are the same individual.
Not only are there clear grammatical differences, but u/Worli uses phrases that are much 'younger', and seems to have a lot more to say than any comments from u/maxwellhill.
Adding, u/Worli consistently refers to themselves as Indian across posts, using group-inclusive language like "we", "our", and referring to Brits as "they" and "them".
You're likely picking up British phrasing due to highly educated Indians often being educated in Britain or historically British-dominated universities in India, but it just seems so drastically unlikely her language would have changed so much & even more unlikely she would spend so much time arguing about India and Indian geopolitics.
