Question

If a woman takes an oath that “If I do this or do not do this, I will become a Kafir forever”. If she breaks the oath will she become a Kafir forever?

Answer

No. But it is very very dangerous to make these types of statements. Ask Allah's forgiveness and don't repeat these things in the future.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
