Emancipation: How to Get Emancipated from a Guardian

My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Louisiana

My girlfriend is currently taking care of her 16 year old cousin, who recently had her mother get murdered and her father taken to jail then beaten to death.
She receives weekly life insurance checks, keeping her afloat about $700 dollars and works part time to give her a monthly income of a little over $1000. Together, they pay rent for an apartment who's not under their name; pay their utility bills and live happily. Her legal guardian, my girlfriend's mother, has recently called the police on her to say she's 16 and been taken away from her. The reality of the situation is her legal guardian is an abusive drunk and has left several lash marks on her and refuses to support her. My girlfriend's mother's house is also owned by my girlfriend; when her father died they both received ownership. My question is to understand what we can do to help her from going back to that monster; as her Parents are dead and her legal guardian is abusive. If she were to be emancipated, would it also remove all of her rights to the life insurance claim that she receives money from? That is currently her proof of income; she's a straight A student and continues to be self sufficient on her own but what would we need to get her out of the situation that would end up best for her financially; Any kind of advice would be appreciated. Thank you so much.
