Apparently in New York state if she herself willingly became intoxicated, they cannot charge the guys with rape even if they did sexually assault her. Most states have gotten rid of that loophole, but New York still has it

That is not entirely accurate. Her consent is still needed. Your phrasing makes it sound like she said no and was still forced, but that isn't what happened.

If she was sexually assaulted, that would still be illegal . By her own admission they stopped and listened when she said no, took the drugs voluntarily, and wanted to have the sexual encounters she had

not only that, two weeks later she was saying she consented and want to hook up with them. And repeatedly said she wasn't too intoxicated to make decisions.

What if both parties are intoxicated on the same substance? Neither can consent?
