I'm assuming LSU is too incompetent or not really concerned enough to find it, if there is anything to be found.

That's why I'm putting a lot more stock in Sharon Lewis as the key to this whole incident. What HB found from her was enough to sink Les Miles once it finally saw the light of day. Maybe Ms. Scott is mistaken and Lewis did nothing more than report the matter to Verge and Segar (as per their request and Alleva's direction to the AD as a whole). Lewis could easily clarify that and that would go a long way towards taking the heat off of Coach O. Or she could blow this whole thing up in a hurry if she contradicts what O said and backs up Scott's version of events.

Lewis already has a documented history of Segar trying to throw her under the bus. The HB report pretty much blasted LSU for ignoring Lewis and not addressing her concerns. But I assume Lewis loves her job. She's been in the AD forever. Assuming she actually knows more, it wouldn't be an easy decision. But she is far and away the most likely person to talk. She's already shown herself to be very empathetic to the alleged victims.
