Cloud forgot bodies tend to float.

First they float until the lungs are filled with water.

they remain sunk until the body starts to rot and carbonic dioxide particles get stuck in the body, so it floats again.

they float for some time until the body decomposes a lot more and the remains go down again.

Judging by the rigor mortis (colorless lips, but sill has eyebrows and eyelashes) she doesnt have much time dead. Also, the way she is floating (the chest floats while the legs don't) suggests that she is floating because of the air remaining in her lungs, and if i remember correctly, Masamune got through her stomach, leaving her lungs intact.

Hmm, layman forensic pathology. Unfortunately I don't know how accurate that is in most fictional settings.

That'd be messed up, visiting the Forgotten City and seeing a wet decomposing Aeris floating around.

Unless you're smarter than Cloud and just toss a Phoenix Down on her.
