I am not clear on what you are wanting.  Do you want advice on how to get her to stop chewing, or how to use the litterbox, or what exactly?  Most rabbits do not like to be picked up, this is not surprising.

Answer
To keep her from chewing on the walls, you need to provide chewing alternatives or block the walls off from her.  You can find a list of bunny toys at http://www.rabbit.org/faq/sections/toys.html.  Plexiglass is a good thing to use to block the walls, since obviously she can get under furniture.

You can find info on littertraining at http://www.rabbit.org/faq/sections/litter.html.  For a while I would restrict the space she is in, until she learns to use a litterbox, then allow her gradual access to other parts of the house.

Some vegetables will cause red urine, you can find info on that at http://www.rabbit.org/journal/3-1/red-urine.html.  Since she has been spayed, we can almost certainly eliminate uterine disorders, although she could have a UTI.  But vegetables are the most common cause.
