I guess it depends on the "pushing". Was it to move her out of the way to avoid further confrontation? Was it to back her against the wall to intimidate her? Was it a violent shove flinging her across the room? There is a big difference between each case. My guess is that if the sort of other behavior you describe was going on, there is probably more mental and verbal abuse occurring, which can be just as bad/worse.
As others have said, going over there and putting a knot on his head will probably just get you in trouble while teaching him very little. But in your shoes I would almost insist that my sister go to collect her things at a time that I could accompany her. Guys who bully women are often much more reluctant to do so in front of someone who can physically reciprocate.
