Obviously never. ZUN has pretty clearly designated the matter to be something the fanworks should explore and there is no way he would ever off such an important character considering he has never done it for even minor characters (Fortune Teller doesn't count since his whole role in FS was to die and build tension based on that later, plus he was around for a whole two chapters). Touhou can be dark at times but ZUN doesn't roll like that. Also it would completely nullify a major point of her character, being an ordinary magician and all and generally the most relatable of the playable characters.
Oh yeah, and not to mention the fact that there is not chance in hell she isn't excluded from the whole "Human villagers becoming youkai is a sin" rule. She no longer lives in the village and is already considered a superhuman by the villagers, so the ruining the balance justification doesn't work.
