So long as it has been more than two years since the last custody order, your mom can bring a motion before the court to change custody. However, considering that there was actually abuse involved, unless she has really taken some major steps to change her life, I would not expect the court to grant her motion. If this is something your mom really wants to pursue, she will have to get an attorney. While the court will take your wishes into consideration, ultimately what is in your best interests is what will determine the outcome.
