At the end of 2024, Garac won the junior gold medal at the Winter Cup in Germany. It was reported that shortly afterward, her coach, Alexandra Piscupescu was removed from the national team with no explanation. Garac was able to continue training, though without her coach.

After this, Garac's family moved to Germany, where her grandmother is from. Piscupescu alleged that as part of a conflict within the Romanian federation and with its head Irina Deleanu, Garac was told that she would not receive assignments to major competitions unless she changed coaches. Deleanu contended that Garac was given no such condition, and that she moved because her mother was a doctor and found a job at a German hospital.
