Answer 1

Note that the style of input is fixed at 250px:

<input class="form-control" id="Nome" name="Nome" style="width: 250px; height: 30px;" type="text" value="Benício Calebe Giovanni Araújo" />

Since it is Bootstrap, just delete all information from style that the size of input is lengthened to the widest possible size.

EDIT

style="min-width: 100%" is not a good way to solve it. You solve the problem only for one component, which you should solve for the entire application.
