If her Medical Assistance ends, an automatic referral will be sent electronically to the Marketplace insurance. (Medical Assistance doesn't automatically close, it has to be purposely closed. Ride it out.)

Agreed. The first call should be to the MA caseworker to see exactly when it expires and what happens for the renewal process. There is zero point in paying for a pennie plan while on MA.

I've talked with DHS about this before, and they said you would have at least 30 days' notice. Most likely, from other conversations and don't quote me on this, they're going to wait until your annual review before making a new decision. When in doubt, call the state helpline. They don't tend to have wait times, and my experience has always been friendly and helpful. Let them guide you. You don't have to do it on your own.
