There is no family based immigration category for uncle and aunts. However, there is a family based category for brothers and sisters. Your question does not have all the information needed to answer your question. Therefore, I advise you to talk to an immigration attorney. Best of luck to you.

What do you mean 2 years of sponsorship by her husband? Was it a green card sponsorship? You need to have your auntie retain an experienced immigration attorney for options available to her.

No. Immediate relatives only (parents or siblings or kids). Contact a US immigration attorney for review.

Was your aunt granted conditional residency, for two years, based on her marriage to a U.S. citizen? But then, before she could get her ten year card, your aunt and her husband got divorced?
