I can reproduce this behavior on Windows. I think the issue is an extra
pair of single quotes (see below).

^_____________^
For reasons not clear to me, the compiler gets the file name passed in
those single quotes. As a test, at a command prompt I can do
xelatex -interaction=nonstopmode "\input" "foo bar.tex"
and it works, but
xelatex -interaction=nonstopmode "\input" '"foo bar.tex"'
exits with:
This is XeTeX, Version 3.14159265-2.6-0.99996 (TeX Live 2016/W32TeX)
(preloaded format=xelatex)
restricted \write18 enabled.
entering extended mode
LaTeX2e <2016/03/31> patch level 3
Babel <3.9r> and hyphenation patterns for 67 language(s) loaded.
! I can't find file `'"foo bar.tex"''.
<*> \input '"foo bar.tex"'
(Press Enter to retry, or Control-Z to exit)
Please type another input file name
! Emergency stop.
<*> \input '"foo bar.tex"'
Does this help?
