I'm trying to advance in the AI battles so I can gain access to more battles and thus character shards, but my team is often slaughtered by the AI. And the confusing part? I send in my highest leveled characters, which range from the low 50's in level to 60 for my strongest unit, up against level 39 AI. My team is heavily damaged during the AI's first turn and my attacks barely do anything despite the level difference.What might I be doing wrong?

You'd need to provide some details about your squad and gear level. Hard to answer otherwise!

mods... almost always the answer. As soon as I put 5pip, level 15 mods that were generally improving the characters strengths - big improvement.

Gear and mods are more important than levels and stars. Be sure also to send squads that work well together.If you can't beat a higher node, it's probably better to farm lower nodes to increase the gear levels of your characters.

After all, it's the AI dishing out massive damage and hardly getting a cut from my units that's the problem. I doubt squad comp will do anything to change that.

Why are my characters always being crushed?

The team composition is important, if your characters have got synergies, they will work better

I doubt synergies will keep the AI from being able to take out over half of a unit's health that is at least ten levels higher.

And my team changes depending on what I feel like using.

Some characters give extra health to his allies, for example, Sith and Empire unde EP lead

I don't have Palpatine. That would require Rebel units strong enough to do the Demise event :\ I have all of Phoenix Squadroon, K-2, Ahsoka Tano (Fulcrum), Biggs, Bodhi, Pao and Leia. Out of all of them, only Sabine and K-2 have a 3+ star rating, so I'm ineligible for the event when it rolls around.

I suppose I could write out everyone I have and we can go from there?
