She doesn't own most (all probably) of her contributions to the world.

If the voice was only trained on the voice of the character she played in Her, would she have any standing in claiming some kind of infringement?

IANAL, but – I think it's most likely to be an infringement on her right of publicity (i.e. the right to control the commercial value of your name, likeness, etc.)

She doesn't have to own anything to claim this right, if the value of her voice is recognizable.
