My mom got roped into buying a Wyndham timeshare on a trip and procrastinated herself out of the grace period. Is there anything she can do to get out of it now?

A 10 year estimate of cost: That's 900/year + buy in and opportunity cost 1200/year. That's 2100/year for 14 days. So roughly 150-200/day locked in for a decade of short notice off season bookings. It's not bad, but it's also not good unless the rooms start going for 400+ in the future. Which even then you're only saving 2-3k/year for the restrictions, and if you don't use it fully the value quickly swings in their direction.
