I don't think it's a good idea to keep the owl as a pet because it's not like those that are found in the pet store where they're accustomed to being pets. While the owl you found is actually adjusted to the wild, and keeping it is actually killing it slowly.
I suggest, you just heal it back to normal and as soon as it's okay, let her loose.
It's also stressful for animals who are nocturnal to be kept as pets because their eyes are sensitive to light, they need to hide from the light in the mornings and have to exercise and hunt their food at night. They need to be on the move to keep them alive and you making it as a pet, isn't a good idea.
