What is the difference between "to study in it" and "to study on it"?

No difference, because they're both wrong! You want to say, "to study it" or "to study about it." You can only say "in" if you're talking about, for example, a library ("She studied for two hours in the library"). You can "study at" a particular school, university, etc. ("He studied history at Harvard"). And you can "study with" a friend!

I wouldn't mind hearing them said though a bit odd, they are. "Study on it" sounds like "I study on (meaning "about") this subject", after all, study could be intransitive. This is why I would say Jura doesn't really study on grammar and as a result she doesn't know what "grammatically" means.

Both are grammatically incorrect.
