Besides the Picture Concepts, nothing looks concerning. She is clearly very bright. And even if there is a 2E issue, it is extremely mild. When a 2E issue is more severe, more subtest scores are affected.
I am sure she would be able to achieve success in life: get into a good college, have a good career. The biggest way her weakness might show up is that she may need to work harder than an average GT person. That's all.
The reason I tend to downplay her weakness (when a professional may see more problems) is that I have a very severe LD myself which is a result of brain damage (cerebral palsy)from birth. I have areas of significant strength but my full-scale IQ is in the average range due to my significant disability. Judging from her WISC scores, your daughter is stronger cognitively than I am. So again, I would not be worried.
I think that in her case, getting an IEP/504 may only be important in so far as it would allow her to get extended time on standardized tests down the road and thus demonstrate her abilities to the fullest extent. So, that's just my 2 cents.
