Plus instead of marrying Historia, there's no other things left for her, why would she still be alive then? Armin isn't dead, Sasha isn't dead, Hansi isn't dead. Livai isn't dead. Reiner NEVER dies. Yet, they should have died, at least once ( Livai when he ran out of blades, Hansi with the colossal explosion, Sasha against the armoured, Armin obviously, and Reiner : EVERYTIME ). I can't help but laugh here, because "number 1 rule in SnK" is the thing I way saying before about all of this sacrifice and victory win before Armin was saved by Livai. There are no rules in a manga ... Just the author will.

She has an interest, as she has lived in a different period than Reiner and Bertoltd. When she appears, she is also useful for the way the author write the dialogues ( and that's important ). Why is Connie alive when he could have been burned by the Colossal / killed against the secret police ? He is useless after all. Same for Jean. And Sasha. Hansi didn't much more interest than Erd, Mike and the other since the beginning. Reiner could have revealed everything a long time ago, and Bertoltd who is in the same boat as him died. Like I said, no rules.

Armin won the serumbowl, Sasha got an editor that cry in a toilet, Hanji has moblit watching her ass, Levi is just being Levi and Reiner is simply immortal, Isayama saved them for the sake of the plot that's why they survived. For the rest of the cast, they are tied to the rule because they won't serve the future plot (at least not directly).

If Ymir is needed for the future plot then she will live but as I said before, as far as we know, there's nothing left for her...
