This really hit me hard because I'm in a similar situation.
Unfortunately I think the harder you try the more she'll entrench - that's what's so insidious about this mindset because (in my opinion) it appeals to people who have suffered traumatic disappointments in their lives, and gives the balm of belonging to a select group of the "awakened".
The only way I've managed to cope with my own deteriorating mental health in this situation is to steer clear of the subject as much as possible, give non-committal responses amd change the subject, and very occasionally drop in the odd question like "How would you ever know if you were wrong about this?" and "Says who, and why should you believe them?"
Sorry not to be more constructive - if I figure out anything more I'll follow up.
