    When she effectivly faked her death to avoid the inquisition and keep her father from getting excommunicated she also in the prosses renounced her Knighthood.

    So she would no longer be refused to as Ser as she is no longer a knight.

    My question is, The title for a knight IRL is "Sir" is it not? If so then why use "Ser" in game?

    "Ser" is just an archaic alternate spelling of "Sir," used to sell the idea of Eorzea being old-timey just like the rest of the baroque English script.

    The appropriate female equivalent would be "Dame," but lots of fictional works don't bother with that.
