Well, I always assumed that Pyrrha liked Jaune because he wasn't that way. I mean, he fanboyed out when he first figured out who she was, but he's been a normal guy with her ever since - he hasn't let her status get in the way of how he treats her as a person. Tons of people likely try to get with Pyrrha (because she's everything that you've listed) without really getting to know her, and she's prob. sick of it. That's why she likes Jaune - he doesn't seem to care that much. (A little cliche, but then again, so is a lot of stuff in the show).

I don't think that Pyrrha's one to reject a normal, traditional advance from... anyone, really. It's clear that she doesn't think herself above anyone who isn't going out of their way to be terrible (CRDL), so if she really got to know anyone well, I could see a relationship working on her end. I think it's that Jaune is just being a great guy (without that goal in mind) that makes her like him so much. She usually gets people who are nice to her because she's famous, or she's strong, or they want a relationship with her. Not just because.

And then there's the chance that Pyrrha has this Batman-esque pathalogical need to help people, and that she's just latched firmly onto Jaune because he needs so much help.
