Their hopes were raised when Ezequiel Ponce put them ahead with a header in the 15th minute, but Mallorca levelled from the penalty spot through Vedat Muriqi midway through the second half.
Both teams had players sent-off after the break, with Elche's Lucas Boye receiving a straight red in the 61st minute, just four minutes after coming on as a substitute.
Fifteen minutes after scoring, Mallorca's Muriqi was dismissed shortly before the final whistle of a match delayed by half-an-hour because of driving rain.
It was the second draw in eight matches for bottom-of-the-league Elche, who had previously lost five in a row. Mallorca stay in 12th place.
