If the abuse is bad enough, the child will be eventually be taken away.
It would depend on who you disclose the information to. You should not tell any one not associated with the case. It is however a requirement to report suspected or confirmed child abuse to CPS. Responsible parties (teachers, RNs, MDs, ect.) are required by law to report suspected child abuse.

It may be illegal for a judge to remove from a child from the parent's custody without a legal case. There are loopholes in the law, and unfortunately child protective services is an area where this happens all too often.

If there is suspected child abuse then the first thing that should be done is the police should be involved. Once the local police department is called they will place the case in the care of Child Protective Services and a lawyer will be provided for the child.
No. Child abuse is sexually exploiting the child, that is not happening here - she is just being exposed to it. Because she was not forced to watch it happen, she just walked in, it is not a case of either child abuse or endangerment.
There is no 'one answer fits all' for such questions. Each case is looked at individually. The rights of the child are protected by the court. It is the responsibility of the adults who care for the child to bring the abuse to the attention of the court and insist that the court appoint an advocate for the child and an investigator to examine the child's experiences and environment. There must always be an adult to help enforce a child's rights.
