[Star Wars] Since Alderaan was destroyed does Princess Leia still retain the title of Princess?

Since Alderaan was destroyed just wondering if she is still considered a Princess.  If she does keep her title does she get promoted to Queen?

Yes. Assuming there's enough people alive to acknowledge it.

The legitimacy of nobility strictly depends on who and how many people are willing to support it. After all, princess is just a title. If her family had enough living supporters, especially those with political power and influence, then she'd still be a princess.

EDIT: Empirically speaking, following the Russian Revolution that overthrew the Tsarists, Nicholas II and his family were still considered nobility because multiple powerful foreign leaders supported their claim to Russia. When the world acknowledge the USSR as a legitimate country, he and his family lost their support and their legitimacy as nobility.
