From what I've read:
1) It was towed up the canal a short way to a "lake" area for inspection. It was leaking immediately after the grounding, and probably does have minor hull issues, but no update since it was freed.
(Steel ships rely on the forces of floating - having water push up and inward to maintain the hull shape. They're not designed to be grounded or to be allowed to sag in the middle.)
2) It was never out of Egypt's custody.
