Unfortunately (or fortunately for Celebrian) I do not believe that the wife of Elrond was raped by Orcs. While it would be possible biologically, as Orcs are basically fallen elves, Orcs also have no love of beauty, more they pride themselves in ugliness, and therefore making love to an elf would be just as unpleasant for them as for the elf.

Then again it is possible that under orders and promise of reward (or on pain of death) a young, lower goblin could be forced to do the dreadful deed, entirely so the captains could watch both the Orc and the Elf's displeasure. War is a dreadful place. [img]smilies/frown.gif[/img]
