According to Variety, Smith’s publicist walked over to Smith during the commercial break and the two had "a discussion."

This is the second time Rock has made a joke at Pinkett Smith's expense — the first being when he hosted the show in 2016 and mocked Pinkett Smith's choice not to attend the show.
"Jada boycotting the Oscars is like me boycotting Rihanna’s panties. I wasn’t invited," he said. In response, at the time, she said: "It comes with the territory, sweetheart."
As many online pointed out, though, if real violence broke out, why weren't any security actions taken?
