I agree. When I got this word for the first time, the hint was "upset" and I had two adjectives in the word bank: sad and salty. I almost went for "salty" because "sad" wasn't angry enough. :D
'Her little sister is looking upset' was rejected and corrected to 'her little sister looked upset'. The present continuous tense should be accepted, as particularly when we are guessing someone's feelings based on their face expression, it is very likely that the face expression is happening at the moment.
Also, can the sentence mean both present and past tense in this very form?
