The difference between Pyrrha and Ozpin, anon, is that with Pyrrha, we were shown her body incinerated to ashes on-screen, while with Ozpin we got a flash and then nothing. We were never shown anything about Ozpin's fate.

@Alhazad: Time may be a thing with Ozpin, but we don't have any serious evidence that he's a Time Lord. So the "reconstituting himself" idea is out.

Now, if he faked his death, or maybe simply escaped, is a better question. Cinder told Salem that yes, she killed him, but for all we know Cinder said that to avoid being punished by the Mother of All Evil, not because she actually killed him, or even is sure she did.
