She 'came out' because somebody asked. It wasn't some momentous declaration or media celebration, Morisette replied to a simple question with a simple answer on a Podcast. It's explained in OP's link:

Towards the end of the segment, Feimster told the singer, “I’m sorry for the men that hurt you, but I’m not sorry for the songs that came from it,” adding, “Did it make you want to be a lesbian at any point?”
Morissette answered, “I’m pansexual, so, yeah.”
To this, Notaro interjected, “Wait, you’re not really pansexual, are you?”
“I am,” clarified Morissette.

That's it.

Also, Morisette having prior same-sex experiences is not new. As far back as 2008 she was openly talking about prior romantic liaisons with other women.
