I feel like such a bad friends for not wanting my friend to come over/spend the night because she is going through a breakup but I know she’s just gonna keep talking about it and I don’t really want to hear it. He cheated on her and she wants him back

U should prob tell her its upsetting to you that she wont do anything to help herself and that you cant keep listening to her complaints knowing she's keeping herself there. smth along those lines maybe

Like reason isn’t getting through to her and idk what more I can really do… I’ve given her my advice several times but she still has this man in her phone and talking to him. She wants to keep getting hurt and I just don’t want to keep dealing with it

Honestly I don’t think you not wanting to continuously “reward” someone’s behavior by being a free therapy session every time they make the same bad decision makes you a bad friend. Sometimes being forced to deal with the consequences of their choices alone is what makes them learn. You can still support her from afar for the sake of your own mental health without enabling her behavior.
