It doesn't much matter what the law is in the Philippines.
You were deceived into an invalid marriage in Australia.
That Australian marriage is not valid, because she was not somebody who could marry.
I suggest that therefore, there's nothing for the local Philippines' process to operate on.
Further, you don't care what her situation is
(in particular, don't give her advice
based on what you read here).
Here's what you do:
Secure your interests in the sale of the business; and
pack your two favourite San Miguel t-shirts in a bag; and
head for the airport.
