So I checked the rulings on Spirit Link and Emi would've still lost. The life gain would come after damage but the game would end as soon as a player's life reaches 0 so the life gain doesn't trigger.

Game was played in 1998 so fifth edition rules were still in effect. In fifth edition life total was checked at the end of the phase so spirit link trigger would resolve before she loses due to dropping to 0 life.
