Is it better to abandon the upbringing of a daughter, whose upbringing in Islam has failed due to the opposition of her apostate mother and the American judicial system, or to emigrate to an Islamic country to seek knowledge and leave the daughter to her fate in the system of disbelief?

You must pay attention to your daughter's upbringing and not abandon her, for a Muslim is responsible for his flock and will be rewarded for guiding his daughter and for her righteous deeds. It is not permissible to leave her to those who invite her to the Fire, while Allah invites to Paradise.
