I don't watch, didn't hear it,  but I agree with OP that pasty is an insult.

I am also "white as a sheet", and I once had a co-worker ask me if I was terminally ill...       

 

The answer was:    "I look like the rest of my family."

Re: Mally’s inappropriate comments

I once had a doctor want to run a blood test for anemia "because you're so pale."  Ha, that's the color of my skin, idiot! Seriously, I think the OP does have a point in that Mally should have used a neutral word like "pale."  Pasty definitely has negative connotations. I'm seriously white and look a LOT better with some makeup and blush.  Gotta love those German/Irish ancestors!

So THAT is what  bothers you? Of all the things Mally says this seems insignificant.

I have very dark hair and wish I had pale skin--I think the contrast is gorgeous.  Just like Megan Fox when she had dark hair .  
My skin is a weird pinkish light olive color.  Not good

Re: Mally’s inappropriate comments

Would she have offended if she had said similar about other skin colorings?  That's the benchmark for a comment.

 

Would it have offended others?  If so, skip it!
