Is something supposed to happen once you complete a bounty? I succeeded with Diana but nothing happened. It still shows as my active bounty and I didn't get anything, and any time I prod the narrator it will acknowledge she stopped her research but urge me to wait.

I did sneak past the guard and persuade Diana with a combination of talk and dream manipulation, no "encounters" per se, so I don't know if that could be the reason. 

Also, does the money stat do anything other than make it impossible to pay your landlord? Is it actually possible to gain it? Is there any need to?

Once you do a bounty you get miasma which gives you higher level spells.  For the bounty to complete the character has to be the focus npc and get the correct modifier and sometimes it will bug out and need a few turns to register. You dont need to pay the landlord if you control her, specifically I think you need the loyal modifier.

Yeah, now that I've completed a bounty correctly I think I see the problem. The task was to get a character to abandon their research and the way I ended up approaching it was to use a dreamscape to influence their decision. When I went back to the location, they were gone. So the narrator kind of acknowledged I succeeded but because it happened "off-camera" while the NPC wasn't in focus, I guess it didn't satisfy the bounty requirements.

Which is unfortunate because the fact that interacting through a dream that way kinda-sorta worked is actually really impressive.

The problem really comes down to the fact that modifiers are only applied to focus NPCs. I'm experimenting now with a build that will allow any NPC to be assigned modifiers. Possible downsides in increasing the complexity of the LLM's instructions and therefore making errors more likely but I'll add it if it doesn't degrade performance.
