Welcome to FT !!!
I assume that by saying a European visa you mean a Schengen zone visa (which does not cover all of Europe).
unless you have proof that you are leaving the next day, I don't think they will allow her in. In fact, the airlines check that during check-in and will not let her board. My mother's visa was one day short of the departure date and she had to change the return flight, costing her $200.
As far as moving from Spain to France, there is no border check but you may be stopped at anytime.
I would definitely get a new visa.
