Backlash over COVID restrictions has her party behind the conservatives. The party is probably forcing her out now in order to introduce someone now since the elections aren't until October.
She's also being blamed for the sluggish state of the New Zealand economy at the moment, which as you can imagine isn't entirely fair as the current causes are linked to events beyond her control. That said, the core issue is still that Labour overpromised and underdelivered, especially given their enormous parliamentary majority after 2020, even though it wouldn't have reached the point of resignation were it not for the point that I mentioned earlier.
