To be honest....other characters will only have a chance if they reach the same level of understanding Othinus has towards Touma. Even though Orsola fits Touma's preferred type.

Even though Misaka is close to that by insistenly tagging along everywhere he goes and fighting with/against each other, she still doesn't understand the magic world and even if she does, she still thinks it is some sort of esper power. Like Birdway once said, made ignorant by science. Not to mention she even said herself that she did not understand Touma's attempts to explain what he has been through (the long time that has passed and the omega world utopia). She did not TRY to understand but instead presented a different perspective that knocked him out of his idiology, which worked fine...although that post-hug lightning strike was uncalled for.

The main issue here is the lack of deeper understanding Misaka has towards Touma and vice versa.

If ever Kamachi was going to settle on putting substantial romance into index, it would most likely be Misaka when/if she finally accepts him and understands him the way Othinus does, especially taking into account how in depth Kamachi has gone into defining her as a character and her relation with Touma, as much as I would like Othinus to be the one to steal Touma's heart (not literally-been there done that, figuratively mind you).
