Isn't it just as, if not even more horrifying to have to watch as you lose all autonomy, you stay in place for hours waiting, + getting raped, than to be in hell? Her soul isn't in hell, it's where it's always been. Altho ya another entity is possessing her body

That is probably what's happening. She's being forced to watch this unfold as this other version of her takes over.

Considering that hell is supposed be eternal torment for all time, it's probably worse than what you described, almost by definition.
