I am sorry to hear about your aunt's situation.

Yes, sometimes it could be possible to self-petition for a green card if she is married to a US citizen or a green card holder (permanent resident) who abused her or subjected her to extreme cruelty. There is a special process for this petition known as a VAWA self-petition. She might need legal help with this petition.

If you need help or want to schedule a legal phone consultation, please email me directly and I'll email you the initial immigration Questionnaire for your aunt.
