It's not rude to use it, but meant literally it wouldn't be pleasant to undergo. 👁 Smile :)
It's being used as a metaphor here, for a lethal verbal assault. Literally it's a move with a weapon that cuts open your opponent's abdomen.

It's actually difficult to paraphrase without using a "cutting" or "eviscerating" metaphor. But the idea is that she ended her remarks with one final brutally nasty attack.
