With the 4-years timeskip from the last chapters I think the time of Annie is almost over, she probably have receive her power in the same time of Reiner and Bertolt so even if the curse is not delayed by the crystal she probably have some (if very little) time left.

I doubt she will side with the survey corp because if Marley discover it, her family will be turned in shifter immediately, and Annie have proven to want to protect her family at all cost (like you said she is not as devoted as Reiner or Bertolt and her family is probably the only reason why she do not switch side). Let's not forget Annie is a mirror of Mikasa, both are extremely strong individual who strive to protect/save the one they loves.

My theory is Annie will not side with the survey corp because she will fear the repercussion for her family, but if she wake up four year into the future with very little time left she will maybe chose to made a big "Fuck you!" at Marley by letting herself being eaten by Historia (maybe during an attack launch by Marley where she will be free by the warrior). Like this Marley will not been able to prove she have betray them and she will be able to do one time in her life something good for the people inside the wall.

After all, she know she is already dead, but at least she can have a small revenge on Marley for made her life shit (or a big revenge if the person in question is Historia).
