It's a more dominant cat I suppose. If Kitty is female, and the new cat is an intact male, she'll likely feel even more intimidated.
If Kitty visits other homes, she'll just defer to that home instead.

In general, this is the right answer.

Teddy,
I've lived with cats for 60 years, so I know whereof I speak.
It doesn't pay to interfere too much with the hierarchy of feral cats. It's okay to feed, water, shelter, but don't get too involved or attached.
This situation sounds like your favorite has been supplanted by a new alpha.
