No, I think alcohol is just the convenient comedy prop to make her a ditzy loser. Drunk=cheap laughs. This is a show that has made a canon point that Sheldon's father was a possibly violent alcoholic, and they get him publicly drunk for giggles.
I'd be beyond shocked if we get a very special episode. I use to like those episodes. I doubt TPTB want to go deep. The most we will get is a Meemaw death. Even one of the couples cheating seems unlikely. While I do not support cheating in RL, Bring it on with TV shows and fanfic.
