I’m not sure how a trillionaire could remove the moon

If they found an asteroid they liked, they might try to alter its orbit to put it on a collision course with the moon in order to make it more convenient to mine. Don't underestimate how stupid people can be.

At worst it'd be a new crater and debris thrown into orbit. The very largest asteroid thrown at the moon, even like Ceres, would be a peashooter at a barge.
