> Does Scarlett Johansson have a distinct enough voice that she is instantly recognizable?

It absolutely is if you've seen /Her/. It even nails her character's borderline-flirty cadence and tone in the film.

Actually until recently I thought the voice actor for "her" was Rashida Jones

I definitely thought "Sky" was Rashida Jones. I still do.

I've seen Her and the similarity of the voice didn't occur to me until I read about it. I guess it wasn't super distinct in the movie. Maybe if they'd had Christopher Walken or Shakira or someone with a really distinctive sound it would have been more memorable and noticable to me.
