Am I related to my Aunt's aunt?

My aunt is an aunt by marriage not by blood.

    No, not if she's an aunt only by marriage.

    If she were an aunt by blood, then her aunt would be the sister of one of her parents, and her parents would be one set of your grandparents.  Your grandparents' siblings are your great-aunts and great-uncles.

    People define family differently. You are not related in the strictest sense but are related by marriage.

    no chance unless they are kin to each other.

    It is not impossible, but it would require your uncle and aunt to be related, eg as cousins, for that to happen.

    No. You are related to her by marriage. You are not related to any of her relatives.

    No in genealogy, you are only related to biological relatives, not  people who 'married' into the family

    yes, distantly, all humans are

    but you probably don't share entire chromosomes with her like you do with close bloodrelatives
