I'll probably regret saying this some time in the future, but I don't think Eto's going to die anytime soon. She's still too necessary plot-wise.

Moreover I believe her fate is too bounded with the protagonist's. If she dies, something will happen to him too. When it comes to represent the two of them, Ishida often hides Tarot symbolism, such as the numbers for The Lovers and The Empress, and makes use of strong biblical imagery - the apple, the snake skin. He's doing so because he's planning something specific for Ken and Eto most likely, letting her die right now would be too silly and a waste of work time. By the way, you can read deeper analyses on the matter if you look for them.

These death flags though are still here. Maybe Ishida wants us to understand the danger of the path Eto's taking, or at least have a glimpse of Eto's current thoughts since she's basically preparing for the worst. She really seems to think she's going to die.
