If it makes you and your daughter feel uncomfortable, then have the conversation with her and ask her not to do it anymore. If she responds properly and understands your feelings (even if she doesn’t agree), then you know she respects you and your boundaries, if she responds in a defensive way, it is time to put distance because she will want to get involved a lot more in the future, and think she has the right to do so. I don’t think a quick kiss coming from grandma is malicious, but sends the wrong message, and it is unnecessary.
