To be safe, you should talk to an immigration attorney via Skype ... it might not be a problem, but to be safe, seek confirmation.

If a person is a US citizen they likely would be able to sponsor their spouse even with restraining order though it is likely that they should under go some counseling if needed, to prevent a reoccurrence of an abusive relationship.

There is nothing about the restraining order that prevents you from sponsoring a new spouse. Nonetheless, the process is complicated enough and you should work with a lawyer.
