I have had her for a month today and gave her the chance to settle in(a week long), which the exploring stopped after about 2 days. Temps have been spot on since I got her (never went more than 79-81 or 90-92) and my humidity has remained between 50-55 except during shed which I bumped her up to 70. She has so far refused a medium rat, a small rat twice, and an XL mouse. One of the small rats was live and rest were either p/k or f/t.
In my opinion it has less to do with temps and more to do with adjusting to a new home ... find out what the person you got her from was feeding her and add some security to her enclosure .... 9 times out of 10 those are the biggest problems that cause a snake to go off feed when moving to a new home.

Hope this helps.
