I dont think there's any need to spoiler that one, we are in the image thread where even homura's new "position" is apparent...
but anyways, yes she's still lawful good.
she still follows the "laws" of how magical girls "should" be, based on her admiration for mami. while she may have had some selfish desire in wanting kyousuke's affection, ultimately she did make all the proper "good" and "lawful" choices available, which were refusing to sacrifice innocents just to get a grief seed on her own.
actually, the fact that she refused the grief seeds, is quite a common thing regarding lawful good you know. lawful characters in general, are pretty stubborn in following a set of principles, in this case sayaka stuck to her principles in the end.
and even before the whole magical girl thing, sayaka's always been defending and protecting madoka. while sayaka's a bit of a tomboy, which is looked a bit as rebellious, there wasnt really anything to show that she was someone who did things on her own.
heck the very fact that she did those things despite how it went against what she really felt, goes to show how she fits the alignment. she could have been "selfish" as you imply, but she didnt in the end.
and then there's also the whole last bit with her moment as goddess madoka gave her a choice.
actions speak louder than words, which is why...

Essentially, she goes full-on yandere for Madoka, but in the end, perhaps still more "Madoka neutral"- or to go with the original set, perhap chaotic neutral. She does not take pleasure in immoral actions, simply sees

homura still fits in with chaotic, very much with how she prefers desire over order, which is what makes up chaotic individuals.
now the issue though is whether you'd view her as evil or not... and id like to just remind you, just cause you've got some "reason" to do so, doesnt really make you any less evil.
are the antagonists. who would offer up the world just to revive their dead lover, considered to be not evil?
ultimately, homura is evil by definition of her pretty much risking the lives and messing up the world, just for the sake of bringing back her loved one.
id say that you consider a character to be aligned with good, if their interest stretches beyond a few selected individuals, while the ones who focus on solely single object while disregarding everything else, is pretty much evil.
why do you think that most of the time, ultimate rage = ultimate evil, or the "super powered dark side" of a character, often occurs when a person they're close to gets hurt?
