Absent an employment contact and/or local laws stating otherwise, yes, an employer may change your status as long as the reason is not discriminatory (e.g. against anti-discrimination law because of your age, sex, gender, religion, etc) or because they no longer wish to pay your health insurance to save money (illegal under ERISA).

Can a corporation legally uphold anti-fraternization policies regarding employees fraternizing with an independent contractor working with the company?

It depends on how far-encompassing this anti-fraternization policy is. If this policy states that it covers any and all employees, in whatever capacities they're employed, then it applies to employees such as private contractors. A private contractor can be considered an employee of the company because they will be paid by the company and will associate freely with the company's employees. The main reason companies have anti-fraternization policies is because employees develop relationships with their coworkers that can distract them from their jobs. Such destructive issues as sexual favors, occupational espionage (spying) and sexual harassment can develop that will affect the quality of their work. Jealousy, hostility and retaliation caused by break-ups can disrupt workplace structure and tranquility. If you were aware that this company had an anti-fraternization policy, before the relationship started, you should have been prepared to uphold company policies. If you aren't a major shareholder of this company, you probably won't be able to change their policies, so abide by company policies or seek employment elsewhere.
