Other posters here may have a different experience, and I will be happy to be proven wrong on this case, but that's how I feel about it.
I've gotten an ORC for a flight that was rerouted several weeks in advance (albeit from AF/KL to KL). I don't think the amount of time matters, if your ticket has an "INVOL REROUTE" annotation you can ask for ORC.
