Your legal basis for petitioning your wife has changed (PR petitioning spouse), so there is no reason to expect a petition denial. It will take 18+ months for her to be eligible for a visa slot, though.

No, you won't be denied. You r a legal resident, therefore, you are elegable to petition for your spouse; but just as Ray says, it will take a apx 18 months.
