As far as I know, you can’t rearrage layers any other way than by dragging them in the layer palette. You can rearrange objects and groups with the crtl+[ and ctrl+] keys though, so if you construct the illustration in one layer and use groups, you can easily rearrange stacking.

If you have lots of anchor points to convert and want to stay on the convert anchor point tool, you can hold down the Ctrl key (PC) to temporarily use the direct selection tool, and release it to go back to the convert anchor point tool.

You have accidentally turned the layer into a template layer. You can fix that under the layer menu>layer options.

The obvious best way would be to find out how the grading for the clip that has the right color was done and apply it to the other.
That failing, the next most viable option is likely Selective color.

Considering I can’t reproduce the problem, I suspect there is something more than that to it. How are you making the shapes “wiggle”?

The code for scale would be:
rect=sourceRectAtTime(time, false);
rw = rect.width;
rh = rect.height;
finalWidth=60;
finalHeight=40;
[finalWidth/rw*100, finalHeight/rh*100]You can replace the finalWidth and finalHeight settings with a slider if you want to be able to change them.
The scaling is not proportional with this expression, it will force the layers to be that size regardless of original dimensions. Layers will scale around their origin points.
You can put this expression into one layer scale property then copy and paste to all other layers.

For greenscreen work, use Prores HQ.
You should also test using video gamma instead of film gamma. At least it is worth a try. I used to use film gamma to eventually conclude it will mostly just lengthen the color correction stage considerably without (usually) adding much to the look. In many cases it works just as well the other way, you can desaturate and decrease contrast from footage shot with video gamma to get a filmlike look, but the original footage will be much closer to the final look right out of camera. That’s my experience on that matter. (Obviously, this in not true in all cases. Sometimes you will definitely want the film gamma. But perhaps not as often as you might think.)

Particular is a whole different matter, it is a commercial plug-in for AE, and fairly complex one at that.

Use the Time Displacement effect with an animated sine-wave based black-to-white wave as the displacement map (higher frequency than this):
It is good to have moving foreground elements and an unmoving background in the footage to get that look, as unmoving parts of the image will not be affected by the displacement.
Compose at 16 or 32 bits, 8-bit displacement maps look crappy.
