Can't answer as it can't be just any Filipino.  Who wants to immigrate and what is the relationship to the sponsor?

It doesn’t matter whose mother in law she is… is she a citizen or green card holder, and who exactly does she want to sponsor?

No. Your mom can be a joint sponsor financially, but you have to be the petitioner.

You'll have to be the petitioner (form I-130) and primary sponsor (I-864). Your mother can be a joint sponsor financially. If you believe your past could cause problems bringing your wife to the US, you could also consider moving to your spouse instead.

Yes OP has to be the petitioner for their spouse. They might not be able to relocate to the Philippines especially if the past is a divorce that is not recognised by the Philippines which would make them a bigamist in the Philippines and so they can’t live there.
 

@ziggy406 if you want the most accurate help - being able to tell you if your past will be a problem or not - then please include why you think you would have problems petitioning your wife. Wishing you the best on your visa journey.
