No. Shepard is still very much in command of the Normandy. And considering Shepard is a Spectre, as well as Ashley, they are equally ranked.
Spectre Status > Alliance Rank.
If Ashley ever tried to take command of the Normandy, my Shepard will throw her out the airlock without hesitation, even though she is my Shep's love interest.
Equally ranked? Not hardly. Ashley is Lt. Commander = Major, Shepard is Commander = Lt. Colonel. Shepard still outranks her and Alenko by one promotion. Although Kaiden got the short end of the stick compared to Ashley's rise in rank because he should be an Admiral. The rank system is all fouled up, in my opinion.
Regardless, either the ship has no Captain meaning that it was in dry-dock and not assigned one secondary to refit or the VS is in command (a Spectre gets his own ship). I'm thinking that the VS becoming a Spectre isn't recent and the Normandy is theirs. How BioWare will resolve this is anybody's guess.
Edit - As an afterthought, it's clear that not a lot of thought was dedicated to the chain of command.
