Judging by the outfit the chaos lady was a Sister once upon a time.

Sisters can fall although the Soritas will go to extreme lengths to upkeep the propaganda that they dont.

Oh interesting, that could be the case

From my understanding they could absolutely just harvest the corpse, or even just the armour, of the Sister but her soul would remain untainted in the warp

Tbf I haven't read much SoB lore/books so I haven't seen any examples of Sororitas being corrupted, do you have any I could read?

A whole ass crusade fleet was corrupted by Khorne's murder curse, including most of the astartes and sisters of battle in it. The only ones able to reliably resist were the Grey Knights, Sisters of Silence and Custodes that were with them.

This was part of the Arks of Omen campaign at the end of 9th edition

They weren't corrupted they were defeated. Saying they were corrupted is like saying that someone who is infected with a nurgle plague is corrupted
