How renegade are we talking here? I consider myself rather renegade, but I still melt around Tali. Even as a renegade, I don't see Tali acting differently around Shepard.
I don't see it as a huge change. She may say something like "funny" after leading the biotic god to death instead of "we should have stopped him." I don't see it as a particularly large shift. Squadmates don't make choices based on renegade/paragon.
Think of it this way. If you gave her that data she has provided the fleet with what could be invaulable intel on how the geth have evolved. She did this for the good of the fleet and with very little personal gain out of it besides being considered an adult and gaining her new ship name.
On top of this, she helped Shepard save the citadel, proving to the entire galaxy the value of the quarian people.
On her loyalty mission, after doing all this and asking very little (if anything) in return, they accuse her of treason, blindside her with her father's demise, and try to have her exiled. After everything she has done for them they try to throw her out like yesterdays trash.
Shepard said it himself "You've never been selfish, if anything you've spent too much time thinking of the fleet and not enough thinking of yourself."
My veiw is renegade tali takes this advice to heart, she begins to think less of what other people and indulge in what she desires. I'm not saying she turns into a selfish biitch, just that she is more willing to do what she wants.
Well the problem there is that Tali doesn't really want anything as it stands now. Acting unselfishly and doing what she wants is the same during ME1/2. All she wants is the good of the flotilla. I can't see that changing. The only other thing she may want is Shepard, but that isn't exclusive to the good of the fleet, she can have both anyway.
Even as renegade, she isn't going to want the destruction of the flotilla or anything like that. If anything, it would just mean a willingness to do anything possible to reclaim the homeworld, but I get the feeling that she was willing to do that already. Sure she may feel betrayed, and she should, but she isn't going to declare war on the admirality board. I really don't think there's much place for a renegade Tali. Her only goal is too paragon, and she was already willing to do anything to get it.
