In Corvo's case, possession is a physical merging of his body and, while we don't know how it works for Delilah's ritual, I can't see her simply leaving an empty body behind. I would assume she still has her powers, and I'd say that the Mark would move with her. Pure speculation however.

But even if she doesn't have her powers, she's still the Empress, so has the different kind of power that comes with that. It seems that her magic was simply a means to an end, that of becoming Empress. Once she's Empress, she'll have Corvo to protect her, and she just needs to play her role well and no one willl ever suspect.
