It highly unlikely - though the odds of a limited recovery are a little bit better if she stays alive than they are if she's dead. Whether or not she is going to get better isn't really the point. Her parents find value in her the way she is. They don't like watching her starve to death. It's painful. She may not visibly react to pain or understand what is causing pain, but we don't really know that she can't feel it.

She has no cerebral cortex.

Feeling or not, there's no one home.

Then why is such a big deal being made about how relaxing and euphorious it is to be starved to death? If nodoby's home, that particular gem is totally irrelevant.

I understood that her cerebral cortex had liquified.

At any rate - yeah, active euthanesia is certainly more humane than passive, but that's even less likely to be allowed.
