Does the Green Knight get his 2+ save against "instant kill, no wounds applied" spells & magic items?

The Green Knight's save is in fact a regeneration effect, and can be taken whenever he dies, no matter what killed him. It doesn't prevent him from dying, it just keeps him from staying that way.

Can the Tress of Isoulde be used with a weapon that autokills when a wound is inflicted?

No. Even though one might still need to roll 2+ to hit and 2+ to wound with an autokill weapon, the rules of the Tress forbid the use of an autokill weapon regardless of how the weapon actually slays a model.

Can the hit or wounding rolls of the Tress be modified by items or abilities that impose a penalty to the rolls? For example, Armor of Brilliance, River Trolls, defended obstacles.

The Direwolf FAQ Council Interpretation could not decide this question based on the published rules. Roll a D6 to decide if the magic of the Tress defeats to-hit and to-wound penalties everytime it occurs, or come to an agreement before the game starts.
