Post-Revival SOLSTICE does not yet have an understanding of magic, so she can't really pull off any competent (or safe) reality warping things quite yet, nor reconstruction. In addition, her magic is generally kind of sloppy, unrefined, and not very versatile.

Still, she has resistance to Sephiroth's hax, and though he can probably force his hax through her Absolute Barrier, the effects will be weaker, and the barrier will automatically adapt. As the fight goes on, Sephiroth will run out of opportunities to hurt her as her barrier adapts to his attacks, and as her combat sense adapts to his fighting style and arsenal. SOLSTICE can get through his defenses with automatic soul/mind damage in her normal attacks, along with subatomic destruction, which will get through his regeneration.

Sephiroth's best chance is to go for a kill right away, which would be difficult, and I'm not sure if in-character Sephiroth would do so anyways. SOLSTICE's default mindset (winning by any costs, going for kills as soon as possible) is a lot more secure than Sephiroth's, and though he's definitely no slouch when it comes to intelligence, SOLSTICE probably has him beat there with her massive depth of strategic knowledge. I'd say SOLSTICE takes it with mid-difficulty.
