If they're going to be inside the house then it probably can't get too cold for them unless you never turn the heat on. :wink Ideal temp for rabbits is around 60 degrees or so...remember that they have a coat of fur that you don't. It's drafts that do more harm to them than the temps, but I'd say about 70 degrees would work okay...not too cold for you to hang out in and still okay for them.

Rabbits are really tolerant to cold weather. If anything, keep your rabbit's house off of the heating vents or she may be uncomfortably warm. They wear pretty good winter coats year round. When sheltered from the wind, they can easily withstand temps below freezing. When I used to let him go outside, my rabbit seemed pretty happy until it dipped into the 30s. I don't think that it will get even nearly cold enough in your room to bother the rabbit HAHA! We humans tend to get chilly at 60, twice your rabbit's lower limit

you don't need to heat her room, in fact, she'd probably prefer it if you didn't.
Should I compensate with some other method of helpinh keeping her warm or comfortable?

Nope, they really don't like to be particularly warm. Imagine what kind of weather you'd prefer if you could never take off a thick, full-body wintercoat haha
