After all, this is some serious stuff that could implicate the village's structure and could cause some trouble if the common villagers knew their leader was being manipulated. I think it's more that they have no definitive proof. Similar to the Masked Man in konoha: most people correctly figured out that someone was behind the attack and that it was an uchiha, but there was no proof to show this was true. Hence, the higher-ups couldn't really do anything about it.
