If you mean she has a lot of learning and education, you should say she is so knowledgeable. OR
She has so MUCH knowledge (Knowledge is not countable, so you can't have "many" knowledge.

But wise has more than one meaning, for instance.

And wise guy
The teacher was delighted that the worst wise guy in the class was moving out of town.
and wiseguy or wise guy can be a member of the Mafia (Not a Sicilian)
I would just let sleeping dogs lie (deixar quieto) if I were you, he's a wise guy, he works for Don Corleone.
