The thing is with children is that love is unconditional. I've spent my entire life loving my Dad and he has never been there for me.
She sounds like she has some hefty growing up to do and going out to Portugal might help her do that. Sometimes all you can do is love them and hope that one day they hear the words you have said years before and they finally make sense.
It sounds like you have done the best you can and don't feel guilty, because I can tell by the way you speak you love her regardless and just want more for her than she wants for herself. Hopefully one day she will surprise you and give you what you want x
