My guess for why Diana is gaining popularity in competitive play is for two reasons.

Diana is a champion who can work really well with team coordination, without it Diana actual has a lot of trouble.

Secondly is that Diana is one of the few back line diving champions that can assassinate and survive the high peeling damage of the Cinderhulk tank meta (Bruisers,  fighters and Tanks).

As a last note don't just assume the occasional solo Q stomp from a Diana is equal to a standard Diana result. If Diana is behind she suffers a lot more to remain useful when trying to act independantly, the only thing she can trust is that if she scores a perfect combo (IF!) she can usually win a trade. A Diana with full team cooperation can be a problem though because the team can make up for her issues.
