Becoming an alicorn needs to be earned. Twilight started out as a unicorn and became one due to the many things she did. Sci-Twi accomplish anything close to what Twilight had, so it makes sense that she's still a unicorn when she goes to Equestria.

But as for why she gets wings when she pony-ups, my guess would be because the EQGs got their magic from when Twilight shared hers with them through her crown. So Twilight's alicorn magic was in the mix of their. Sci-Twi got her magic when she absorbed the EQGs magic, so she probabaly inherited Twilight's alicorn magic that was mixed in with theirs.
