In law problems put you between a rock and a hard place. I feel that my stepmother has made my father worse in his behaviors, and my brother's wife, my SIL, is a total wretch, and has turned him against his family. She misbehaves and gets away with it, while the rest of us have to walk on eggshells around her and apologize the second one of her many overly delicate feelings get hurt.
I don't know how to help you breach this gap. I lost my brother because of his wife. And I fear your brother will pick his wife over you too. That's just the way of things. You're his sister, not his mother.
Maybe try and talk to him about what has happened from your perspective and ask him if he will talk to her about leaving you alone?
