What is the ruling on a Muslim wife remaining married to her Christian husband after she embraces Islam, and is one sinful for not informing her of the unlawfulness of that?

You did well in inviting the woman to Islam, and since you took her to the authorities concerned with teaching new Muslims, there is no blame on you for not informing her that she is no longer lawful for her disbelieving husband. If she still does not know, then explain it to her, and perhaps that will be an impetus for her to invite her husband to Islam.
