There are no limitations for filing 498A or DV on the husband's family as long as divorce is not granted.

She can file DV case. Try to have amicable settlement to save the marriage and if this is not possible, defend the case against you.

I agree with experts, no limit to file case u/s 498A IPC and/or POWFDV Act, 2005.
Settle the matter amicably by reconciling, give and take, leaving aside your ego, should seek help from some elderly respectable person(s)or relative(s).
