I'll defer to the FBI on that. Superficially though, I think it's that she did all of her email business (classified or otherwise) on a private server, whereas Rice and Powell did some work-related correspondence on their home email accounts (as do nearly all Federal employees, FWIW).
In my last 20 years of Federal service, I had a TS clearance and my work computer was blocked from accessing all other email or webmail servers (e.g., Verizon, Gmail, etc.) other than my (secure) work server. OTOH, at home I still did private email on my Verizon and webmail accounts. I guess I could have chosen to divulge state secrets on my home email, but if I did I'd probably be talking to you from prison now.
