F-1 visas are granted for duration of status [D/S] and unless a finding of your F-1 violation is already known to CIS, you should have no problem. Even if CIS knows of the violation, unless it is already a basis of a removal order or other adverse DHS action, your marriage to a US citizen, with a pending I-485 Adjustment application [green card] should suffice to forgive this infraction and the odds are extremely slim that CIS will deny your I-485 case for this alone. But I still strongly suggest that you speak to an immigration attorney because, apart from the F-1 violation, there may be other factors that may separately justify adverse CIS action. Without benefit of counsel, I am unsure you are aware of all the issues and of the attendant risks if CIS finds any other issue(s) justify a denial, marriage to a US citizen may not be enough to overcome a denial.
