Cersei doesn't care about justice or even vengeance, she wants Tyrion dead because of the prophecy that she will be killed by her little brother. She obviously assumes that means Tyrion, though I'm not so sure she's right. That's why she went to great lengths to fix the trial. She wanted to be sure Tyrion would lose and die. She had no interest in knowing the truth of what happened.
So even that situation is not comparable to Catelyn who is at least seeking justice/revenge for a wrongful act by the Frey clan, and she doesn't really need trials given that she was a firsthand witness to the crime.
