I don't think Cruella can cast the Dark Curse because I doubt there's anyone she loves. I doubt she even loves herself, but if she does, there might be a chance she could cast the curse by committing suicide. She's already dead tho, so her heart isn't beating and it wouldn't work.

However, if hypothetically she could cast the Dark Curse, I think it would be so much darker than anything we've seen. She would constantly slaughter people and wear their skins. Over and over again.

I think it'd be more interesting to see Zelena's version. If her time travel spell had succeeded, she would be the Mayor of Storybrooke. Regina would probably be turned into a poor maid who would work cleaning Mary Margaret and David's mansion, although the two wouldn't be happily married as they have memories of a miscarriage that cost them their daughter Emma.

Mr. Gold could be an accountant working for Zelena, the sheriff department being run by Walsh. Cora would presumably be proud of Zelena, and therefore she wouldn't protect herself from the curse, so she could be Zelena's cursed mother as well, still spoiling her.

The other witches of Oz could be in some sort of council advising Zelena. The Docks could be replaced by a tin industry where Stanum works, and Main Street could be known as Yellow Brick Street. "The heart of Storybrooke," Granny's Dinner, might be Aunt Em's, and the Cowardly lion turned human could run the pet shelter.
