How would she be removed? Who would decide that?
The chief justice of the district court can reassign the case to another judge. This would be the easiest way and save face for Judge Cannon.
Slate goes through the different ways this could be accomplished legally.
The other thing to think about is what she would accomplish by interfering with the proceeding. Trump will be indicted for the racketeering in Georgia. So she stand to gain nothing by showboating and could lose everything instead.

Was the chief justice of the district court involved with the overruling that occured with her previous decision? The language in the ruling seemed pretty harsh towards her, but I'm not clear if the opinions of higher courts have any affect on her career. I don't know much about the legal system, but it seems like Federal judges don't have anything to worry about other than impeachment, which is next to impossible.
No, the Chief Justice is part of the state. The 11th circuit is Federal Judges.
As for the impact on her career, it would take a Trump type to nominate her for the Supreme Court. Her nomination would be a firestorm. Mainly to her very liberal interpretation of the law used in this case.
