If I apply for divorce, will it affect my PR and me applying for citizenship?

If you have permanent residency with no conditions attached (your card has a 10-year expiration date), filing for divorce will not affect your residency status or applying for citizenship. Not all marriages last forever, and USCIS cannot hold you responsible for your husband's actions and the dissolution of your marriage. Of course, in your naturalization interview, the immigration officer may ask you questions about your marital status due to the fact that is how you obtained residency, but he cannot use a divorce or separation as a basis for denying your citizenship application. However, if you still have a conditional permanent residency (for two years), and have not yet removed the conditions on your residency, a separation and/or divorce can complicate things in your immigration case. It is best to consult with an immigration lawyer to see if these situations apply to your case.

Will my green card application be affected?

Although it is unclear from your statement as to the "everything" that you have to show a bona fide joint life, going by the presumption that you have at least 3 individual proofs of a bona fide joint life to submit, the fact that you don't have both parties listed on the lease should not be a bar to having your green card petition granted.
