Por que é feminine?

Catastrophe is feminine in French because it derives from the Latin "catastropha," which itself comes from Greek "katastrophē" (κατastrophή), and Latin nouns ending in "-a" are typically feminine, a pattern that carried into French. This is a regular application of Latin gender rules rather than an exception.
