She might, but I would take her to the emergency vet. They will make her vomit, which will help a lot, and maybe sedate her and give her an IV fluid to help her get the drug out of her system. I don't know if this is enough of a weight difference between the cats for the amount she ate to actually kill her, but your vet will know.
