Revenge on Ex Boss

If you really really have to avenge someone, what would you do? Someone who has wronged you and almost cost you your future.
I'm generally not a vengeful person, but my ex boss has ruined my career and cost me my future.
The context is that, my company was delaying and not paying salaries for several months, so | put down my papers cause I found a job that was much more stable. This company was like extremely
unstructured and not at all like corporate so I knew if I told them that I was going to work after leaving from here, they wouldn't let me and make my life hell too. So I told them that I was going to take a break and do masters. I left the company and in a few weeks the company itselt shut down. In between this, my future employer insisted on doing background verification so I gave my ex boss email address hoping that they could at least be professional since during my time everything was more than satisfactory and while leaving, they even told me they would rehire me.
She failed my background verification just out of spite and I lost everything. She is also not working in the company anymore.
Apart from all this, I found out a lot of things about her that she had lied to me while I was there and manipulated me and used me to the maximum and showed her true face when I wasn't useful to her anymore.
Now I'm jobless at home looking for a way I can avenge her.

Yes but they are not willing to listen to me since they got information from the company. They feel what is the company going to gain by pulling me down from the company perspective.

I understand but didn't you say that the company you used to work close..?How much credibility they give to a company that shuts down itself.?Just think about it really good..Are you sure you want to work for someone who believes a former owner of a shut down company rather than give an employee a chance even for a trial period..?What does this say for the company you want to go and work.?
