I wouldn't use the crate for punishment. It is designed to be her safe room, not her bad place. I'd use another place (a boring bathroom, utility room, etc.) as a place to put her when she is bad. Don't keep her there long either. You only need to separate yourself from her for about 30 seconds. That's long enough to hammer home the issue.

Keep the crate her safe room where she can go to get away from things and rest or eat...not a place to go for punishment.
