Yup, Lucy was jealous of Rhoda.

Remember how Luke Skywalker let a Sand Person sneak up right in front of him because he was looking through his cool space binoculars? Tight focus/tunnel vision. At the mall, Diane was focused on Susan most of the time.

Diane demonstrated remarkable perception the very first time we heard her speaking. Lucy calls Diane "Nancy Drew" and Diane is pictured as Sherlock Holmes, which is why she's Diane Holmes in my headcanon. That's two famous detectives in just one comic. And yet she didn't seem to notice Nanase at all until Ellen flipped Nanase's ponytail.

Oh, yeah right. She had a crush on Diane.

Actually, she likely DID noticed Nanase, she just didn't considered her important enough to say something about her until she observed Ellen doing something which shown Nanase knows her.

But, generally, yes: she has remarkable perception, but still some blind spots caused by not focusing on, for example, Lucy. She thinks she knows her, which prevents her from realizing she doesn't know her as well as she thinks.

BTW, the "reasons I know you'll appreciate" is probably her height problem, not being lesbian, right?

Height, plus the fact that Rhoda is pretty busty as well, and gets unwanted attention because of that.

... right. It's not so visible in her usual outfits, and when you compare it to Ellen or Nanase it doesn't seem that big ... but her getting attention because of her bust size is likely.
