Two rejected applications to appeal, and no full application to the CCRC yet... the conviction is safe as safe can be at present, whatever personal or public opinion may be.

Moreover, proof beyond reasonable doubt only has meaning in a jury room, where that standard was indeed met.

As yet, there's no legal indication that her conviction is looking shaky at all. She has a PR team working for her though, and they seem to have an effect on you, as is their purpose.
