This なん does not mean "not". This (な)ん is something called "explanatory-の". You can learn about it in the following articles.
- What is the meaning of ~んです/~のだ/etc?
- Explanatory のだ (んだ)
より is a particle to mark a comparison target. So the sentence is the same as 僕は誰より彼女が好きだ but with an added nuance. Perhaps the person is trying to convince someone. The translation would be "I love her more than anybody (else)."
Thanks for your help!
