Plus, Rebecca Mader is having the time of her life, unlike previous under-used actors, and the writers love her, so as long as they can keep her around they're going to. The only thing that might mess up Zelena is Rebecca getting bored. Plus, there are quite a few fans who still love her, because even though she doesn't get a lot of screentime, when she does get it she completely steals the scene. I agree, Zelena is a "fan favorite" so she's not going anywhere, no matter how much pointless she is. Can favorites don't completely last. And they don't have any power. And one of the reasons why an actor would leave is not only because of personal business, or job opportunities, but also unforeseen circomstances (like the decline ratings of a show). So clearly the fans don't have the power on anything cause they don't make the decisions around. And whatever happens, there is nothing they can do about it except let it go. I'm not saying that the fans make the decisions, but if the writers ignore the fans' opinions on characters the ratings are more likely to drop. Because Zelena is popular, if the writers removed her there would be a lot of outcry and people refusing to watch the show (like what happened with Robin Hood). In the end, it is their decision and they could totally remove her, but they are unlikely to for the reasons stated. I forgot to mention another reason why they would not remove her now is because her baby.
