They promoted her because she was also doing Chicago Med.... They believed that they were getting a season 8, so they wanted Mekia to be around... Not because of season 8, but because of season 7. This way, Mekia would have to prioritize her filmings in OUAT because she's a series regular, while in Chicago Med she's recurring. Still doesn't change the fact that she's barely appearing through the season, so she doesn't have many filmings to prioritize Just like Esk said, it's a financial reason. If they hadn't paid her series regular salary, she might have appeared even less.
