The clip, filmed at a gym and also featuring Joe Jonas, sees Sophie address the camera and say something that sounds an awful lot like “what’s up my n*gga?”:

If you ask me, it sorta sounds like she might be saying “what’s up motherfuckas?” and in fact didn’t use the N word at all. Can’t be sure though.
Here’s how Twitter responded:

At the end of the day, some people are going to hear what they want to hear just so they can call her a racist. I’m not categorically saying she didn’t use the N word, but in my opinion it sounds like more “motherfuckas”. Sophie Turner = not racist on this evidence.
