I don't think it's wrong to express discomfort regarding your partner being connected with exes, what matters is how it's communicated and why it matters to you.
If your request came from a place of insecurity, fear, or past experiences, I think that's valid and worth discussing. But asking her to cut off people without understanding why can feel controlling to the other person, which might be why she’s upset.
