Not seeing the house or knowing your exact situation doesn't help I'll just relate to what we did at our old fire house. It was builtin 1952 when oil was cheap as dirt, and without any insulation. T had a flat roof with about twenty pounds of stone on it, and the roof started to leak back around 1980. So, we realized we needed a new roof. So, what we did was to strip the stone and old roof, then we laid down varying thicknesses of foam insulation from 1" to 4', then a layer of butyl fabric, butyl paint and more farbic and paint, the about 15# of stone. As far as I know, it's still tight, and our heat bill dropped by about 75% the first winter.Is there any possibility you could replace the roof with steel and a layer of foam under it?
