She commited adultery and moved in with another guy.
Who committed adultery and moved in with another guy? The child or the mother. If it was the mother the adultery/moving in has absolutely nothing to do with supporting the child of the marriage.
If the daughter is legally emancipated - on her own and I believe you said she lives with the boyfriend - you must go back to Court and get the original Order changed for substantially changed circumstances and use the "emancipated" argument against future support.
At present the Order is until 21 and until that Order is changed, that's the cut off age.
I don't understand "back pay." Are you talking about back child support or back spousal support? Have you been paying both?
