Unless RTD brings the Time Lords back in the finale (something Moff seems none too keen on) I'm pretty sure that rumor is bullshit. She'd be awesome as the Rani, though. I think the Rani is a totally excellent baddie.
Background on the Rani: she's a female Time Lord who went to school with the Doctor and the Master. She's a Time Lord scientist who fucked off and used to rule a planet where she basically uplifted the species to worship her.
Also, she clones dinosaurs. Trufax.
Unfortunately, I think the bringing back of Time Lords other than the Master is unlikely to happen, even for the Time Lords who were on his rogue's gallery. (I'd also like to see them bring back the Meddling Monk, whose whole motif was that he was in it for the lulz.)
ETA: Technically the Rani might have an out, though, since the last time we see her on TV her TARDIS is getting sucked into a parallel universe. Except she returns in one of the spin-off media and I'd be pretty pissed if they ignore that so the Rani gets to come back from a parallel universe but Romana is still dead.
