All mathematics is produced by physical objects (brains, computers). Therefore the laws of physics determine what theorems are possible, and mathematics has no existence independent of our universe.

Assuming OUR universe is the only ONE (no pun intended). Mathematics is the science of number, quantity and space. It is conceivable that other universes and other higher and lower dimensions exist, each with their own time/space configuration and “physical” products.
My statement still applies with many universes. Just replace "universe" by "multiverse". (Different universes may have different theorems, of course.)

You'd have to change "our universe" to "a multiverse". However, conceding to the multiverse model, which you have, destroys your point entirely, for in multiverse, "universes" are individual things. Therefore, math can be applied outside of any given universe, ad inf.

You're missing the point. Math has no existence outside of physical reality, regardless of whether the latter is one universe or many.
