Jeanne in Apocrypha is a strange case anyway.

Spoiler for Apocrypha:

Many of the other pseudo-servants we see are Divine Spirits that are too powerful normally to fit into a Servant container (Euryale and Stheno are an exception as really weak Divine Spirits), so they instead use someone else as a vessel, someone with a compatible nature and a connection to a holy grail (war). And the host is usually pushed aside by the stronger Divine Spirit but often its a merger rather than complete loss of control.

No idea why Zhuge Liang is a pseudo-servant, I thought he was just human. But then most pseudo-servants are mainly just excuses to bring in popular characters from previous Fate works anyway.

Spoiler for Apocrypha: I think normally Jeanne can manifest on her own, the problem in Apocrypha was that the Ruler spot was still taken by Amakusa which is why Jeanne had to borrow someone for the war. Something like that, I think.
