Is there a double negative in I heard her say that she didn't do nothing wrong?

Yes there is. It's a very common form of speech, though. But stricly speaking it says here that she says 'she did not do nothing wrong', which is the same as her saying 'she did do something wrong'. That is because a double negative makes a positive.

Yes, there is a double negative in the sentence. "Didn't do nothing" is a common example of a double negative as "didn't" and "nothing" both imply negation, which creates a grammatically incorrect construction. It should be corrected to "I heard her say that she didn't do anything wrong."

What is the difference between yelling and raising your voice?
Yelling involves speaking loudly and forcefully, often with anger or aggression, whereas raising your voice simply means speaking in a louder tone than usual, which may be due to excitement, urgency, or trying to be heard in a noisy environment. Yelling tends to carry a negative connotation because it can be perceived as intimidating or disrespectful, while raising your voice may be more neutral depending on the context.
