According to Wikipedia:
"Columbia's logo originally appeared in 1924. The first model for the logo is unknown, although Bette Davis claimed that Claudia Dell was used."
"In 1993, the logo was repainted digitally by New Orleans artist Michael Deas. It has been rumored that Annette Bening was the model, but in fact Deas used a model named Jenny Joseph."
So your answer is either "unknown but maybe Claudia Dell" (original model) or "Jenny Joseph" (current one).

The Columbia Pictures logo (featuring model/homemaker Jenny Joseph as the Torch Lady), used from 1996-today.
The result, based on Deas' sessions with Mandeville, Louisiana homemaker Jenny Joseph who posed for him with a makeshift robe and torch, was a taller, slimmer Columbia Lady with lighter, curlier hair and a dimmer torch. Rather than use Joseph's face however, Deas constructed a composite face made up of several computer-generated features.
Here's a picture of her posing for the picture: http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20041031/ANSWERMAN/410310301/1023

Although it's not official, Bette Davis once said the original model was showgirl & actress Claudia Dell, from San Antonio, Tx.
