Just…call your mom and tell her what happened? This doesn’t seem very complicated. 🤷‍♀️

I know this sounds exactly like what I should do, it just wouldn't go over very well. Think if it as if I need to speak in work language.

“Father said I’m not welcome on the group call as I am not interested in having a relationship with brother. I would still like to talk to you directly though.

She's super picky about what words I use... I just think if I say 'not welcome' she will somehow either use that against me or make it an even bigger problem. Honestly I couldn't care less about being on the call or not

Than just don't do the calls and let your father explain it to her.

It sounds like she's miserable to deal with as well so why haven't you just gone LC or NC with her as well?

That's nice. You can still have am adult conversation with her.
