That was the plan originally. She was going to crawl into a locker and die of fright. But given how long she's heard screaming in the film, it sounds like more than fright that's killing her.
Ay, it is mentioned in the blu-ray commentary track during the actual scene. Just checked it. Cartwright confirms what you're describing, but they never filmed the locker scene. Just before it happens on screen, Ridley mentions that he imagines that she dies from having a heart attack.
As for the rape theory, there's nothing in the film to suggest that something like that actually happens. Neither does it makes sense, when you think about it. The only suggested rape scene in the film, remains Ash's attack on Ripley.
Incidently, the shot of the xeno's tale moving up Lambert's leg, is actually Harry Dean Stanton/Brett - not Veronica Cartwright. It was just inserted here because they needed a shot of psychical contact between the two and they then allowed your own imagination to fill out the blanks.
