Tulsi had a 75% (!) approval rating in January. That was before she endorsed Sanders, but I doubt it changed much. She has 2 million cash on hand, which is the second largest warchest in Hawaii behind Brian Schatz, and she's going to win re-election this year in a landslide because even the state GOP has disavowed her opponent. Not only does she have those built in advantages, but she's pretty popular among the progressive wing, and she's made a lot of friends by campaigning for other progressive House candidates. If she was under attack, you can guarantee she would be able to raise a massive amount of money to defend her seat. Clinton and her supporters would have to be really masochistic to want to take on that fight.
