The USCIS revokes residency not sponsors. Once she becomes a citizen, you are no longer responsible under the terms of the affidavit of support. You are not responsible over her exactly. She can have bad credit or even file bankruptcy and it does not affect you. If she murders someone or commits other crimes, it has no impact on you. If she gets government benefits and is asked to pay it back and does not, that's another story. What are the chances of that?

Extreme hardship is a very difficult standard and impossible to advise you through a forum such as this because it is very fact-specific. Often there is not one single factor that is compelling so you need to paint the picture of the whole situation for the USCIS Officer. If your case is already denied unlikely you can get a strong enough case together to appeal in time so it likely will be a re-file. You should set up a paid phone consultation to review your case so you can be properly advised.

Assuming that your U.S. citizen daughter is over 21 (otherwise, she cannot be a petitioner), a petition for her father will be an immediate relative petition; it should be approved in 5 months to 1 year; then an interview at the U.S. Consulate in the Philippines should happen within several months. Petitions for your daughter's brothers and sisters will be in F4 category; even though approvals of these petitions will take up to 2 years, the visas will not be available for your children for about 23 years (yes, the line is that long). If you are (or can become) a U.S. permanent resident, and sponsor your children, they could get their immigrant visas (green cards) in 2.5 years (if they are under 21) or in 10 years (if they are older than 21 but not married).
