I think your wife thought she was in the clear once she got her EAD/AP & asked for the divorce. Little did she realize she needed to wait for her cgc to be authorized.
If she had maintained her F1 & working on her Opt Ead, she would have been fine & it might have worked out - she probably thinks both EADs are the same!

I would like to point out one fact missed by the OP and in the thread. The visa coach was correct to recommend not to marry & go the K1 route. That's their best shot.
The OP would actually not be treated as a PR of Mexico by the VO. He still works in the US - "spends 10 days a month in Seattle house the months he is not in Mexico". I am guessing to supplant his income to maintain his lifestyle in Mexico. This rule would apply in corrolorary, if someone was a GC holder & working outside the US - he/she would have been deemed to have abandoned his/her US GC status.
Hence OP, you need to make up your mind on how much ties you want to have to the US. You unfortunately cant have it both ways & the CO would be correct to deny your fiance/gf B1/B2. The best shot for her B2 would be for you to quit your US job, sell your Seattle house and move permanently to Mexico & fully sustain yourself in Mexico. Under that scenario, I could see her B2 being approved as she is truly using it for its correct purpose & can prove she has no immigrant intent as you have no more ties left to the US. Till then I only see a denial.
Or a K1 for you guys to permanently live in the US.
Getting married tourist visa? then fiancee returns to her country?

No that fraud is only applicable in the UK - to enter to marry on a tourist visa. Not in the US.
