Chances are they re-used the exact same shadow pass from when they rendered it with Rinoa's model, instead of rendering out a completely new shadow pass for Selphie. Most likely to save time, since it's such a short second scene that only the obsessive would even notice it.

And as Roogle said, Rinoa would have been in the demo for marketing purposes. Also, chances are they had not finished either modelling/texturing/rigging/animating Selphie at that stage.
