Right of wrongfully terminated employee in an at will state.

After 171/2 years of employment, my immediate supervisor, who has always felt threatened by me and has been jealous of me, set me up for termination. None of the reasons stated were in violation of any policies and procedures stated in our employee handbook. Furthermore, my former employer didn’t follow policy and procedure by not giving me a verbal warning before proceeding with disciplinary action. It even came out during the action that my supervisor took action only because she got mad at me over something that was completely misunderstood. I am over 50, female and have had a couple of minor health issues that have been completely resolved. Frankly, I think that my employer went along with this because they wanted to get rid of a long term employee to replace with a less expensive one.
What do I do?

I worked for a company of 350 employees that was worth 32 million . I was fired because of age discrimination in Sept. I filed with the EEOC in Sept. In Dec. this company sold to a company that has 48000 employees and worth in the billions. The EEOC says I have a good case but haven’t finished with the investigation. Will I be suing the original company or the one that bought it? All the employees involved in my termination are still employed including the previous owner.
