Unfortunately this is a commom problem with new relationships, and is made worse in your case by the long distance aspect of your relationship.
I know it is frustrating but the best thing you can do is be there to support your girlfriend and of course help her with what is best to do, but in the end to go with she thinks is best and support her through it.
Her ex is clearly jealous and that is why she is acting like this, hopefully in time she will find a new girlfriend of her own and move on from her ex, but untill then the best approach i would say is for you not to talk to her or even respond to any messages she may send you, as clearly she wants a reaction from you.
Maybe it would be best for your gf to cut off contact with her over time, for example dont spend any physical time with her if possible, then only speaking to her if she talks to her first and only respond to messages or text that are not about you or them or anything personal such as that.
Hope this helps some.
