Need help to recover blpckchain.info wallet, my wife forgot her password and the brute force with btcrecover is not catching the password
Is there a way to just manually transfer the btc from the old wallet into a new wallet we do have access to

No.
You need at least one of the things you have none of

working wallet.
PIN or password for the wallet.
Recovery phrase for the wallet.


is there any way to extract the password or private keys directly from the wallet file?

No.
The brute-force guessing method you are using is the primary known method.
There have been alleged security vulnerabilities in the blockchain.info wallet but it is possible your wallets were patched to fix those issues. It may be a long shot:

blockchain.info vulnerability allows attackers to steal bitcoin wallet backups


Can anyone help!?

No,
You are already doing the right thing I think.
Unfortunately, from the perspective of the software designers, what you are doing is exactly what they must make every effort  to prevent being possible. If you could easily do this, so could a hacker or someone who stole your phone.

Footnote. OP knows this - but it is a good idea to remind new readers:
The Blockchain.info website says

Your Backup Phrase is made up of 12 random words, and is an encoded version of your master seed (and an industry standard). It acts as a backup and allows you to access your bitcoins and ether regardless of the wallet software you’re using. In the event that you lose your password, or choose to use another wallet provider, your Backup Phrase is all you need to regain access to your funds.
Quick tip: You can find your 12 word Backup Phrase in your Security Center after creating your wallet. Write this phrase down and keep it somewhere safe.

(my emphasis)
I'd go further, practice wallet recovery and make sure you can recover a lost wallet before putting serious money &quot;in&quot; it.
