She can re-approach the chapter that offered her the bid. If the chapter met quota and is at/over total, she is SOL. If not, the chapter may say anything from "sure, welcome aboard!" to "you will have to re-rush, but we're having a COB event in two weeks / a month / next semester, why don't you come by then" to "you turned us down and now you want in? Get lost, kid".
She is bound to that chapter for one year, so she cannot join any other chapter until next year's FR.

However, if she was offered a bid through COB or from a group that she did NOT put on her bid card, the bid expires after 48 hours at the most.

Not necessarily. My chapter has held COB bids open for longer than that. Sometimes a biddee wants to think about it, talk it over with her parents, figure out how she's going to meet the time and financial obligations...
But bids don't stay open forever.
