Holy suddenly gained her "stand" after Dio was shot by the arrow using Johnathan's body, which is equivalent to her being shot as well. And like any arrows' unlucky victims she was destined to die painfully (which for some reason got lifted because Dio was dead, pretty sure that isn't how arrows work but whatever).

However her "stand" wasn't really a stand though. It seems like it was in the process of developing one but went on halt as she simply doesn't own a strong enough fighting spirit to contain one, as evident by Avdol's inability to touch it when trying with the intention to do so, because it wasn't a fully developed stand and was more like an image of it.

The likely reason to why it took roughly 50 days to kill Holy as opposed to "unworthy" arrows' victims who would get an extremely painful but an otherwise swift death overall was maybe due to her actually being somewhat close to be able to sustain a stand, but just not really enough in the grand scheme of things, hence the overly long ride on the pain train.

However it might just be well, Araki, so there's that too.
