As she's just casually opened the handy "BOX'O'DOOM", are you sure? If Hydra have been running SHEILD for years, her being a high ranking HYDRA agent makes as much sense as anything. And since Fury is going on and on and on about how he only trusts certain people, it would make sense that one of the people he trusts, he really can't.
They're being coy as to whether Val is spying FOR Fury or if she's betraying him, and presumably has been for some time. If it's the former, I will be mildly pleased. If it's the latter, well, I can't say I would be shocked considering the premise of this book is that everything we knew was wrong whether it makes sense or not, and we are living in an age where character and continuity are strictly secondary to the stories they want to tell RIGHT NOW. It would make me unhappy, yes, but at this point Marvel has done so much to make me unhappy that it's like kicking a dead puppy. It's mean and disrespectful, but the puppy at least can't feel it any more.

And it's implied she's the one who pressed the panic button that brought Fury's Caterpillars.
