Okay, so let's take your theory that she was still into Rusty until Hank showed up. Why didn't she contact him? Nikki was 15. That means she would have been legal in 2 to 3 years depending on when her birthday was. If she was so in love with Doc, she could have just taken the X-1 keys and walked down the street Dermott lives within driving distance).
Except she wasn't. She was an obsessive fan who hit on him, and he fucked up badly and the whole thing exploded. She realized that the Woody Allen-esque dude who knocked her up and chickened out when her Mom stuck it to him was not the cartoon action hero and got over him. She tells Hank that his father is a wash-up, and then goes on to compare Hank to the cartoon-Rusty.
She was temporarily infatuated with him. Got over it. Does not care anymore and likely holds him in contempt. She never loved him
My own theories regarding Doc are something else entirely.
