She can change her appearance whenever she likes.
Technically, she shouldn't even BE "alive" remember? She went rampant at the end of Halo Legends and rampancy almost always ends in the "death" of said rampant AI.
I really don't think she's Rampant and I don't think that Origins even really supports that, seeing as Cortana was not exhibiting any of the signs of Rampancy at all. Personally I think she already went through it while under the influence of the Gravemind, she went through several of the phases of Rampancy while in his clutches (may have been all of them, not entirely sure). Then when Chief found her she went completely back to normal, I think she has either entered Meta-stability or is pretty damn close to it at least.
And Rampancy does not equal immediate death, it's not even certain that an AI will go Rampant when exactly seven years have passed from their "birth". That's just an average, and while they're usually close, and average is not always completely accurate.
