I haven't read the entire thread so don't know - but have you tried hand-feeding her? And just "priming the pump" by opening her mouth and putting a tiny bit of food inside her mouth or rubbing it on the outside of her lips? I've used all of those methods to get a dog started eating after them refusing to eat for hours of being sick. Then, I think after their nausea from the illness is better, the super empty stomach keeps them feeling nauseated and I wonder if lots of time gas will make them feel full. Sometimes even if they they have no interest at all if food is put down for them to self-feed, they will begin to slowly eat when they are helped along.
If she's still nauseated but just not sick enough or too empty to vomit, maybe a dose of Cerenia or whatever anti-nausea medication you have at home for her will decrease her nausea enough to allow her to eat a few hours after the dose.
