How many fuses did you check and how did you check them? Do not only check them visually but use a multimeter to check continuity, as many times a blown fuse might look ok.
How did you check the standby voltage? Using a multimeter? Where did you measured them and what did you get? On the AC or DC side? Maybe both?
Have you checked ALL areas of your TV’s boards and are you sure that there’re no signs of burnt components?
Have you checked the aerial connector area? It is usually shielded with a metallic box to avoid EMI and EMC issues.
If the lightning surge was close enough to your home aerial, the static might have blown some of the RF electronics withing the EMI cans, and possibly propagate the overvoltage to the rest of the TV damaging more areas of the electronics. Some times I’ve seen the RF receiver boards as independent PCBs. Check that you didn’t miss the inspection for burnt components on any board, and have a look inside the EMI cans if possible.
Good luck!
Edit:
I see you have updated pictures.
The bottom face of the motherboard seems to have quite burnt areas. I don’t know if that’s an effect of the picture, or maybe that the board has not been cleaned after a repair, or maybe because of the lightning surge. Anyways, the area underneath the aerial connector looks bad.

If the EMI can lid on the top face is not soldered to the walls, try to remove it to see if there’s any damaged component. You also can smell around it before trying to open it. If it smells like burnt plastic…you have your damaged area.
