Can a seller prevent a buyer from completing FHA work orders?

I'm in contract with a house in Wisconsin. We've already made it through the inspection contingency. After the appraisal was completed my lender came back with 7 plumbing related work orders. The seller is saying that she doesn't want to grant access to have the work orders completed because she's worried that it will open a can of works and cause even more work to be done. Everyone involved knows that this is just a excuse to try to back out of the deal because the seller is having buyer's remorse from agreeing to the price I negotiated them down to. So my question is can a seller prevent me from completing FHA work orders?

Yes.  It's their house until you own it.
