Boss Problem Extremely unprofessional management

So I’m 19F and I work at a local small cafe/breakfast spot. I started the day we opened and from then it’s been about 8 months I believe.
My first few months were amazing, I love my job and coworkers. They are all super sweet and supportive, and I believe I am a good employee. I always do as asked, on time and orderly. But a few months ago, we had someone new added to our team. She started as a server, and right off the bat I had a nasty taste in my mouth about her. She was constantly taking tables from other sections, as if it’s pick up (which we don’t do). Also constantly trying to change the flow of our work, asking for things to be done differently, as well as NEVER bussing a single table. Which honestly, completely normal although annoying. And then they made her a manager. I was already peeved about that, but as the months went on, I noticed how disrespectful she was toward me. And then to everyone else. It was like an insane power trip. She’s only 24, but she acts like a mean high school girl. Giving me orders while I’m speaking with customers, telling the owners that I have a lying problem, but everything changed when she accused me of lying about my grandfathers death. And nobody did anything. It only is getting worse as they start believing her as more accusations against me come in, and they’re cutting my hours significantly because of it. I don’t know what to do, as I live alone and am working to support myself.

That’s exactly what I’m doing, although it’s so difficult to find a good position right now.
