It blooming won't! I know several FWD cars that have spoilers, including a contender for 'Fastest mini in the world'. Those cars wouldn't have them if they were bad for handling!

the force needed from a rear spoiler to pivot the car around the axis of the rear wheel would be HUGE!!

As Jammy says, fitting a rear spoiler DOES NOT affect front wheel handling. It might do when you hit speeds of 200mph +, but any car with that sort of performance has serious underbody workings, ground effect etc to keep both ends stuck to the ground.
