Not for spectacle. But Princess Aura is whipped on the back as punishment for her betrayal.

Not explicitly. But it is implied that Dale is going to be raped by Ming multiple times. She always escapes before this happens.

When Dale first encounters Ming, Ming beams her with his magic ring against Dale's will. Although nothing explicit happens, it is implied that this action has some sexual undertones.

Sort of with Klytus after he dies. His face pulsates and dissolves. It's kind of gross, but brief.

When Klytus is killed, his facial features deform traumatically on their own.

In the scene where Zarkov's memories are being ransacked, there is the sound of a woman giving birth, but nothing is clearly seen.

Nothing direct, but in the scene where Zarkov is flashing back to his past there are brief references to the Nazis and the Holocaust.

The only significant black character dies very early in the film (though technically not the very first character to die).

The depiction of some of the alien societies draws on harmful racial stereotypes.

There are some uncomfortable suggestions about the nature of Ming's relationship with his daughter, although nothing is explicitly confirmed or depicted.
