Possibly I've misunderstood or not made myself clear. You described asking the person to whom the comments had been made whether they were offended. How they felt about it is not the only consideration. They may have found the whole thing hilariously funny whilst the third person found it highly offensive. The third person's perception may be significant, whether the manager likes it or not.

Yes thank you. I've been quite clear on that right the way through.
