Sansa Stark has died twice. Will she do it again?

This is basically an addendum to my Chaos in Westeros video, in which I truncated my Sansa Stark section for the sake of not getting too far into the weeds. But this video is a good chance to fully lose myself in the proverbial brambles. Metaphorically, George RR Martin has killed Sansa twice already in ASOIAF. Once metaphorically (or metaphysically?) using her direwolf Lady, and again with her identity (Sansa becomes Alayne). Will GRRM kill Sansa for good in The Winds of Winter, or can she survive to meet Jon Snow, Arya, Bran, etc. again? I also discuss one of my favorite theories, that Sansa represents the winged wolf in stone chains, and Bran (the three-eyed crow) must free her. TWOW soon! Winterfell!
