Unless she was abused by her US citizen husband, a simple abandonment (with or without cause) usually can't be a valid reason for applying for a green card in her own right.

I often work with clients from all over the United States who were abused by their US citizen spouses and apply for a green card using a special federal law designed to help women and men in this situation. You may want to talk to a lawyer who is qualified in these matters in order to get a case-specific advice and help.
