I am assuming you are asking about disagreements between Church authorities, such as popes, and secular authorities, such as kings or emperors.

The answer is yes, sometimes the kings and emperors won. Their victories were not permanent, but the victories sometimes lasted for the rest of their lives.

There was a period from 1305 to 1378, for example, when the popes were so dominated by the Kings of France that they did not go to Rome and remained in what has been called the "Babylonian Captivity" of the popes.

Was there EVER a Queen Victoria in the Middle Ages?

There may have been a Queen Victoria in the Middle Ages, but I cannot find any reference to her. There was a Victoria who was the mother of Victorinus, a man who claimed to be the Roman Emperor in the 3rd century, but she was not a queen and did not live in the Middle Ages. I searched online and in a hard copy of the the Webster's Biographical Dictionary dating from 1948.
