Will it hurt your changes of being part of what "is considered" a top sorority? Yes.
Sad I guess, but true. No matter what campus, there are always sororities that pledge only the prettiest girl- everything else that matters (like GPA) is secondary.
If that or those sororities bid a girl who doesn't "fit in" with the external look of the chapter, then it raises eyebrows and for the wrong reason- people start to think "what happened to XYZ this year?" or "damn, XYZ is on the decline" and members of that sorority don't want people thinking that; even if it isn't true.
So more likely than not, you'll get a bid. Now to which sorority is the question.
Sorry if it was too honest. :]
ETA: I forgot to mention that this also depends on which school you're at and how competitive it is. If it's a big Greek school and many girls go through rush each year, then it'll hurt your chances even more. But if your school's Greek life isn't that big and there are obviously 1 or 2 chapters known for bidding the "big girls" then what I said above pretty much still applies.

I agree with this. But let's say you're George Bush's daughter (or Bill Gates's, or something). You'd probably still get a bid to the top house.
Good luck to you! I am really hoping you find a great home.
