The only time it would impact the validity of the wudhu is if it creates such a level that water does not get to your skin. If water of wudhu does get to skin, then there would be no issue.

Any prayer reciting without performing wudhu', or a ghusl that would suffice for wudhu' must be repeated. 

It is wajib upon every Muslim, from the age of taklif, to learn at least the basics of prayer, and other simple acts of worship and daily rituals.

Niyyah for every worship like Wudhu, Ghusl, Salah etc is the intention in our mind and heart and we do not need to recite it at all. It is not required to recite the Niyyah except in the worship of Hajj and Umrah where it is recommended not obligatory to recite the Niyyah in any language which you understand.

Acrylic nails are considered as zeenah, and therefore haram to wear in public. Furthermore, it would prevent water from getting to her skin/nails, which would invalidate her wudhu' and ghusl.

Should she avoid these situations, like not show it in front of non-mahram, and put it on after wudhu', her prayer will be valid.

Muslim women must observe correct hijab, which includes wearing socks, and not showing adornments (zeenah) to non-mahrams. The anklet would be covered with socks, and as for the nose piercing, if it is considered as zeenah, then it would be haram for her to wear it. 

If the anklet, or piercing, or any zeenah is considered as exposing in the haram way, although it is a sin, but it will not affect the validity of the wudhu.

If the oil on the skin does not form a layer preventing water from reaching the skin, then Wudhu on it is valid, but if the oil on the skin has formed a layer preventing water from reaching the skin then Wudhu will be invalid and she needs to remove that layer by washing it then perform Wudhu.

Some doctors advise to go to the toilet before performing Wudhu so that the gas is out of your stomach during your prayers. If the wind is continuous with out stopping,b then you just need to perform one Wudhu and pray even if wind come out. If the wind stops for few minutes, then you need to perform your Wudhu and Prayers during that period before your Wudhu is broken.
