GEO: Tonks was never on the tapestry in the first place since 
Andromeda got burnt off after going off and marrying a muggleborn.

GEO: Because Sirius was still part of the House of Black. He was on 
the tapestry and everything though he was burnt off. Tonks on the 
other hand was never even part of the tapestry and probably not even 
recognized by the Blacks as one of them.

GEO: If Harry was made Sirius's heir then I think Kreacher would 
probably be forced to obey Harry. Not sure if he just inherited the 
house from Sirius.
