Political career

In the 2014 presidential primaries, she participated as a member of the group Vamos Adelante, "founded a year earlier."

In 2018, Ache was a founding member of Ciudadanos, a faction of the Colorado Party led by, Ernesto Talvi. In 2019 she was reelected as a member of the National Executive Committee of her party, and in the presidential primaries of that year she was the most voted woman in her political sector. For the runoff of the general election, she supported the formula of Luis Lacalle Pou-Beatriz Argimón, as a member of the Coalición Multicolor.

Once Lacalle's victory was known, Ache was appointed Deputy Minister of Foreign Relations by the president-elect, on December 16, 2019; she would accompany Ernesto Talvi, who was appointed Minister. She took office on March 1, 2020, becoming the second woman to hold the position, after Belela Herrera. In June, Talvi announced his intention to step down as minister, which was made official on July 1. After much speculation, it was announced that Ambassador Francisco Bustillo would replace Talvi at the head of the Foreign Ministry. Despite the change of minister, Ache was retained in office by President Lacalle Pou on July 6. On December 19, 2022, she resigned from the position, being succeeded by Nicolás Albertoni. A few days later, she submitted her resignation as a member of Ciudadanos.
