Unless your treatment violates the terms of an employment contract or union agreement, you have no claim here. The fact is that as an "at will" worker, your company can set the conditions of employment much as it sees fit (absent some form of legally actionable discrimination). Accordingly, you can be disciplined for any reason or no reason at all, with or without notice.
