She should never be the one who should disclose the boyfriend’s se*uality.
OP should seriously confront her roommate and tell her how terrible of a person she is.

OP is definitely doing the right thing.
OP should move out first thing and not be with such an insensitive person.
It doesn’t matter if it was intended or not, what’s wrong is wrong.
