I am looking for the command to invoke RStudio from Linux. I VNC into the linux system and don't see any other option to launch RStudio from the gnome-terminal. I know R files can be directly read in the terminal, but I searched and couldn't find any command to invoke RStudio.

Are you referring to the RStudio desktop version, or the server instance? The former is started by just calling rstudio
:
edd@rob:~$ type -p rstudio
/usr/bin/rstudio
edd@rob:~$
The latter is always running and started as system process:
edd@rob:~$ systemctl status rstudio-server
● rstudio-server.service - RStudio Server
Loaded: loaded (/etc/systemd/system/rstudio-server.service; enabled; vendor preset: enabled)
Active: active (running) since Sun 2018-07-15 20:12:01 CDT; 1 weeks 1 days ago
Main PID: 1665 (rserver)
Tasks: 3 (limit: 4915)
CGroup: /system.slice/rstudio-server.service
└─1665 /usr/lib/rstudio-server/bin/rserver
Jul 15 20:12:00 rob systemd[1]: Starting RStudio Server...
Jul 15 20:12:01 rob systemd[1]: Started RStudio Server.
edd@rob:~$
If you want to access the latter you do not need VNC. Just point your browser at port 8787 on that machine.

Have you tried to launch it from here ?
/usr/bin/rstudio
PS : You need R to be installed on the system too.
