This is a peculiar sentence which I read and didn't quite understand what it meant.
Incorrect sentence - "She couldn't outrun him, nor she could fight him."
correct sentence - " She couldn't outrun him, not could she fight him"
Explanation given - The second independent clause is not in the proper format. Because nor is the coordinating conjunction being used, the second clause must be modeled like a question.
I have never come across a rule like this. Can someone shed more light on this? Does this rule apply to all coordinating conjunction?

Yes, it is a rule only applied to nor. When you use nor to join two independent clauses, check whether the preceding clause is logically negative and the order of verb and subject is inverted. This does NOT applies to all the other conjunctions.
Here's an official question based on this rule. Follow the link: https://gmatclub.com/forum/one-report-concludes-that-many-schools-do-not-have-or-likely-to-have-81311.html
