Rape does not always have to involve sex. Emma had inflicted the Dark One curse upon Hook against his will. Hook was prepared to die and instead of allowing him to do so in peace, Emma used Excalibur to curse him in order to keep him alive for her own selfish reasons. As far as I'm concerned, she had committed psychic rape. I get what you are saying, but it's a tad more complex than that. "Psychic rape is forcing yourself and wishes upon someone's mind I guess. Or maybe even soul, but that's not what Emma did. Emma saved him, not respecting his wishes, and brought him back. Emma didn't do any forceful thing knowingly because she took a risk that would save Hook's life without being fully aware of what would happen.

And I don't think someone could commit rape unaware of what they were doing. (Besides the heavy influence of drugs which isn't present in Emma.)
