In what cases should we use any articles when we talk about industry? Or it is a nominal uncountable noun which is used without articles?

If you're talking in a very general sense, then use no article. For example, "She used to work for a non-profit, but went back into industry." If you're talking about a specific industry, then use an article. For example, "In our industry, the standard best practices are..."; "The (particular) industry has a well-known history of ethical behavior."; and so on.

Industry in general: no article Specific industry: article
