I'm not an expert, but I think it might take some time, but yes she would bleed to death or just die of shock.

I'm pretty sure she ends up dying at the end. The point was that she was the most resilient out of all the experiments they did so according to them she had the answer to the afterlife which was obviously a lie.

I mean that she couldn't possibly see the afterlife by having gone through what she went through. The cult believed that you could see it by being tortured excessively and on the brink of death which is just an irrational belief as you can't know what's on "the other side" if you are not dead. The lie is that she didn't have an answer but lied to the cult leader that she knew there was nothing to destroy the cult.

(Tried to edit my question and deleted it) I guess they thought if she had a near death experience she would see the other side.
