My first thought was something bad might have happened to cause them to be late, and you further upset her by not being all "happened? Are you alright? Etc" she might have been looking for comfort?
Or has she alway been like that?

I am so tired of the drama too. I just wanted to give you some validation about your feelings. I just feel lately like there is so much of this drama and kids acting entitled. I am ready to quit!
I would have apologized profusely if I walked into class late as a student!

NO. She is being ridiculous. Of course it is bad if something happened before they came in, but they should have had the common sense to know that walking in to a class 30 minutes late is bad and there is NO WAY you could have known if something bad had happened.
You need to put a stopper on this now. I would talk to the mother in private first and state that you are sorry if something happened before she came into the studio, but regardless, her response/argument was inappropriate. Tell her that in the future she can say something along the lines of "I apologize for being late, there is something I need to discuss with you regarding it after class."

You're nicer than me. 30 minutes late for a rehearsal...nope. Go home. (Unless there was an emergency)
Parents can be ridiculous. I'd send out a mass email reminding everyone was is expected of them etc.

30 minutes late?
You wait until the instructor acknowledges you, and then you apologize profusely.
Ballet etiquette needs to be taught to both students and parents.
Your student should have already known that her tardiness was a significant breach of etiquette, and informed her parent likewise.
They both should have apologized.
