One of the most famous scenes in the movie involves a bucket of pig blood getting dumped on Carrie at the prom, at which point the audience of students begin to laugh at her.

There is a lot of lying around Carrie at the school, and the mother is very abusive and uses religious reasons to punish Carrie throughout the movie. (for real or perceived infractions)

Depends on how you interpret Carrie's character. Despite her murder spree, I wouldn't define her as an abuser.

Along with the other comment, a teen boy repeatedly slaps his girlfriend when mad, though the girlfriend implies that she likes it.
Also, a female teacher slaps a panicked student in a well-intentioned attempt to help her "snap out of it"

Not exactly. Just when Carrie uses her powers a string like psycho sounds but isn't scary.
There's one scene at the very very end when a hand suddenly grabs a character's arm.
It's really mild in terms of jump scare. None startling, just one.

It's possible that Carrie may have some sort of mental disorder or neurological disability (she is popularly speculated to be on the autism spectrum) and the abuse she suffers may hit close to home for disabled viewers; however there's nothing to confirm that she is disabled or mentally ill in the movie itself.

Not a romantic/sexual relationship but still very odd; Carrie is crying naked in the locker rooms and her teacher hugs her and strokes her hair and back to comfort her while Carrie is still naked. Obviously, this movie was made in the mid-70s when times and social norms were very different.

No but in a scene towards the end a lot of people get sprayed with a firehose and there is a close up of an unconscious character getting sprayed excessively in the face. Kind of "water boarding her" (its very brief though and lasts about 3 seconds max)
