Two things to address:
First, Yes, you have more expenses and did pay, you would get the AOTC. You believe it all went to tuition and you still paid books and summer out of pocket. You have to qualify for the AOTC. That was in the other post I linked you to earlier. The room and board would primarily be food since she is a commuter living at home.
Second: The one claiming the student, enters the 1098-T.
If your name is on the Q and you are claiming your daughter, then you get both forms on your return and she would have none on hers. If she has taxable scholarship income, then she enters it on her return. See Where do I enter scholarship income?
The 1099-Q can get messy. Please see Guide to IRS Form 1099-Q: Payments from Qualified Education Programs
