Can a nuke target an empty space or a whole sector in the base game?

The rulebook ties the nuke to a basestar, and the attack table lists it only against basestars.

No. In the base game the Admiral's nuke targets one basestar, so an empty space area or a sector with several basestars is not a legal target. The Exodus Cylon Fleet option is what lets a nuke aim at a space area.
