There’s not much you can do. Try comforting both your brother and your mom when you can. If your brother is trying to change, hopefully he can get it across to your mom and that might change her opinion. It sucks, but in that situation the best you can do is comfort each side.

I think you should talk with your brother and ask him why did he turned to boze and smokes as a way to live his life. I think it provide an escape from reality for him and that is probably somthing that can be treated - talk with you mother after you talk with him - he is in need of help. if he refuse to get it your mother is doing what have to be done - provided that your brother is in an age where he can take of his self. if he is not in such age you need to involve more people who know your family.
