This is much less than obvious-- if the parent universe has sufficient resources, it's entirely plausible that it would include detailed simulations for fun-- art or gaming or some costly motivation that we don't have.
True. I would estimate that our universe resembles the parent universe with probability ~50%.
Considering how much stuff like convays game of life which bears no resemblance to our universe is played I'd put the probability much lower.
Whenever you run anything which simulates anything turing compatible (Ok. Finite state machine is actually enough due to finite amount of information storage even in our universe) there is a chance for practically anything to happen.
