I don't know what their motivation is, but I definitely hope they protect the identity of the voice actress. If her name gets out, it's basically guaranteed her life would suck for a while.

If she's like 99% of actors, she's someone just struggling to get work, who's lucky if she can afford to rent an apartment without roommates. If her name got out, she's almost certainly have to deal with death threats, stalkers, etc. Rich celebrities can deal with that kind of attention because they have the money to hire security people, PR people, lawyers, etc. Some random voice actor is not going to have those resources.
