During an interview in 1968 :
Jacques Chancel : Si je vous demandais quelle femme vous êtes, seriez-vous capable de me le dire ?
Jeanne Moreau : Je suis une femme de quarante ans. Je mesure un mètre soixante-deux (1 m 62).

I think this is right on, sometimes I thought only 5'2" (she looked nearly a foot shorter than Lee Marvin and somehow Orson Welles) but I think she most often looked between 5'2" and 5'3". She looked a strong 3 inches shorter than Brigitte Bardot.

From watching a little of her, I could see an argument anwywhere from 5ft 2 to 3, although I think a full 5ft 3 overall seemed a bit much.
