Um, from what I can gather, I don't know if this will be the answer you're looking for but Chillingworth found that the shame and embarassment was enough punishment for her and there was nothing else that he could do. He even says, in the beginning when they're in the jail cell, in a paraphrased form on my part, that death wouldn't be as good as the shame and embarassment, partially why he doesn't want to reveal who he really is, because she would be sentenced to death if it were known to the puritans that he was alive.

Also, it is clear at the beggining, Chilingworth feels that the sin was partially his fault, as he had Hester marry him, when he knew she didn't love him.
