In an upcoming adventure, she has invited demogorgon to her palace, and has arranged for the PC's to come there and slay him. She doesn't want him to escape, so could she forbid any type of planeshifting or teleporting from working, even from demogorgon?

By the RAW though, no, he could not plane shift, teleport, or gate, or astral project.

Sadly even if I could dig through the site for that version (I can't, roughly 90% of its members are currently locked out of the site following an attack on it), they would be grossly out of date (as he has undoubtadly been updated for HoTA).

I don't think the version would be very useful to you anyway, as IIRC the current plans have him running at 99 hit dice.

Entirely correct.

I presume the Iron Tower is better then that, though.

I believe the possibility exists that on a special occassion Demogorgon would visit Malcanthets plane in his true essence since they are lovers and for hedonistic pleasures.
