Cora says she won because when she was with Regina she had Regina in her grasp, but Rumple won in the end when he had Regina push Cora into Wonderland. That's why Cora goes to Rumple with a deal: a chance to find his son for her daughter back. If you look closely you can see it.

I would say it might be both, but with them making the gap between Regina and Rumple bigger and bigger I doubt Rumple would have trouble with Cora, since Regina overpowered Cora which means she is at least on par if not above Cora. What episode is it i'll rewatch it cause i never got that at all even after rewatching before. 2x12. Most think it was a physical battle and definitely with the mention of seeing her body, but we know that Regina sent Hook to kill Cora. I'll post you a link of the part.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGf5d7fXvxk Yeah That wasn't the part I was mentioning, Regina acknowledges that there was a fight between Cora and Rumple and that Cora came close to beating rumple and it was mostly magical. Cora didn't expect regina to be able to  use magic and she was caught offguard and ended up being pushed into the glass and into wonderland. I don't wanna go anyfurther here because this thread is about the AP not being freed and stuff. The peace offering is for when they most likely fought, seeing as Cora never really knew that rumple went behind her back and tutored regina, therefore it was never about getting cora to keep regina or rumple getting regina away from cora, which means their altercation was more likely magical and had nothing to do with regina and it is written in Cora's page in the trivia section so that's all I see at all. Thanks anyway.
